About

I am writing to express my interest in participating in the Teachers Exchange Programme in the United States. With over 12 years of teaching experience across the UAE, Maldives, and India, I bring strong expertise in English Language and Literature, the IGCSE Cambridge and British curricula, and student-centred learning.

In my current role at Al Ain Juniors School, Abu Dhabi, (United Arab Emirates) I design engaging lessons, prepare students for GL assessments, and support learners from diverse linguistic backgrounds in developing confidence and academic proficiency. I have also contributed beyond the classroom by coordinating Model United Nations and the World Scholar’s Cup, promoting critical thinking, communication, and global awareness.

I hold a Master’s degree in English Language and Literature and a Bachelor of Education, both approved by the UAE Ministry of Education. I am particularly enthusiastic about the opportunity to contribute my international teaching experience while learning from the American education system and fostering meaningful cross-cultural exchange.

I would welcome the opportunity to contribute to a U.S. school community and represent the values of international educational collaboration.
