My Philosophy of Education:
For the last 12 years, God has given me an enormously fulfilling life through the talent of teaching and serving students. Teaching is my passion, my life and my mission for this generation. From my experience, I have realized that excellent academic performance can be easily created when there is trust between a teacher and a student; thus, the main focus in my lesson is not only to deliver knowledge, but also to understand each student’s capacity, offer a customized learning approach, and motivate the child to realize his/her potential and bring out the best. This cannot be done without the dedication, patience and genuine interest and care for children, and this is the role I will serve in Christian Life Academy. Every eye, every word and every movement of each child in CLA has been already a great inspiration to my daily life and I am excited to be a part of this journey to spiritual, intellectual and international empowerment!
