About:
I am a certified and experienced teacher of Biology since 2014 with a particular focus on IB and A Level Biology, both of which I currently teach. As an IB examiner and IA moderator for Biology since 2016, and EE Coordinator in my school, I am particularly well-equipped to guide IB students to increased success in their Internal Assessments, Extended Essays and exam preparation. My passion lies in fostering inquiry-driven learning, guiding students through independent research, and supporting them to achieve their highest academic potential.
Teaching experience and approach:
I hold a Bachelor and Master of Science and began my career in Biology as a research scholar before beginning teaching in 2014. I now have a Master of Education and over a decade of teaching experience in international schools in India and Canada, where I also taught to the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD), and the British Columbia (BC) Curriculum. I have held various leadership roles including Head of Department, EE Coordinator and Coordinator of the Model United Nations. I am known for my strong subject knowledge, creativity and the strong relationships I create with my students. I draw on my IA moderator and EE Coordinator experience to ensure my students achieve the highest levels of academic rigor, ethical conduct and timely completion of their independent work.
