About
I am a professional teacher of fifteen(15) years with experience in teaching Kindergarten, elementary school, Junior High and currently Senior High School. I am passionate about the holistic development and excellence of my students and this, I hold in high esteem, dedicating my time and resources, even outside school hours, where necessary to ensure that my students are okay.
I worked in Abreshia Catholic Primary School(KEEA District in the Central Region of Ghana) for seven(7) years from September 2011 to September 2018.
I achieved so many things but two key areas I would like to talk about are co-curricular and sanitation. I was able to build a solid cheerleading team for the seven years I taught there and no school could beat us in games, especially football, even to the extent of representing the district at the inter-dristrict level.
I also formed a Sanitation Club which specialized in keeping the key surroundings around the school and the school clean always. My learners were able to transfer this communal spirit to their various communities where there were actively involved in communal labour on weekends.
I was transferred to Abandze Methodist Basic 'A' School in the Mfantseman Municipality of Ghana from September 2018 to September 2025. I attended a lot of workshops on Early Childhood and was moved from the Primary level to the Kindergarten when it was hard getting a teacher to take up the position in 2022. I taught in Kindergarten 1 and 2 until I was reposted in September 2025 to St. Augustine's College in Cape Coast to teach Business Management.
I spearheaded the maiden Carols Service post COVID, took my Basic 6 students through "Our School Garden" project which boosted their love for nature and farming. Some are now home gardeners feeding their families from their own gardens.
I also serve on the management of Abandze Grace Child and Youth Development Center, under Compassion Ghana and Compassion International. I am the Church Partner Committee (CPC) Rep for Finance, Health and Social services. This is a volunteer initiative on my part to promote the well being of the less privileged in my society.
As the SHEP(School Health Education Personnel) for Abandze, I was always part of health teams that undertook health screening and talks. I worked with Operation Eyesight for example, in 2024/25 to do an eye screening for all students and teaching staff.
I am readily available to answer all other questions related to myself, skills, achievements and other job experiences.
