Sumayah V

I am a qualified teacher with a Bachelors degree as well as 9 years experience behind me. I am passionate, determined and excited to help others reach their full potential.

I am a patient, flexible and creative individual. I am able to think on my feet, I problem-solve in the moment and I use various teaching methods including concrete apparatus which encourages comprehension of topics or themes taught. I use students' background knowledge and build on what they know. I focus on what they would like to learn and incorporate that in to my lessons.
