CV
My goal is to inspire learners to become critical thinkers, problem solvers and value-driven citizens.
Ever since I started teaching, I have been passionate in my commitment to three things: maximizing individual student performance, inspiring students’ interest in technology and instilling a sense of self-worth among all students
My educational background includes 22 years of e-teaching expertise at the university, secondary, and primary levels. In addition, from 2016 to 2017, I taught ICT at Matrix International School in Malaysia.
In April 2019, I launched a coding and robotics club, as well as a drone program at Klapmuts Primary. During 2019-2021, I was privileged to serve as a mentor and trainer at my school, district and province where I planned, developed and facilitated eLearning and coding and robotics content.
- On June 1, 2021, I was appointed as the eLearning Project Manager at Metro East Education District.
- On May 1. 2022, I was appointed as the Deputy Chief Education Specialist: Special Projects Coordinator in the Directorate eLearning.
- On August 1, 2022, I was appointed as Deputy Chief Education Specialist: Directorate Curriculum GET.
My vision is to eradicate poverty and inequality with quality STEAM education for all learners.
