12 years teaching secondary & senior-secondary mathematics — from quadratic equations to calculus — with a proof-first approach that builds real number sense, not memorised steps.
"I believe every student is one good explanation away from actually liking mathematics — my job is to find that explanation, not just deliver the syllabus."
I'm a senior mathematics teacher with 12 years of classroom experience across algebra, trigonometry, and calculus at the secondary and senior-secondary level. My teaching is built on a simple premise: students remember what they derive, not what they're told to memorise.
Outside the classroom, I mentor new maths teachers on lesson design, run a weekly problem-solving club, and occasionally write about maths pedagogy. I'm currently looking for a senior faculty or curriculum-lead role where I can shape how mathematics is taught at a school-wide level.
Twelve years across three schools, each building on the last.

She's the reason I actually understand calculus instead of just passing it.
Patient, structured, and genuinely excited about the subject. It's contagious.
Open to full-time faculty roles, curriculum leadership, and senior-secondary tutoring.
