About
I am an experienced Physics and Mathematics educator with over 11 years of teaching and academic leadership experience in secondary education. Currently serving as Deputy Principal at Kopkop College, Papua New Guinea, while teaching Grade 12 Physics and Advanced Mathematics. I hold a Bachelor of Science from the University of Papua New Guinea and a Graduate Certificate in STEM Education from Curtin University, with ongoing Master's studies in STEM Education.
Throughout my teaching career, I've demonstrated success in delivering rigorous, student-centered learning programs, improving academic outcomes, mentoring staff, and supporting whole-school development. I've also developed skills in curriculum planning, assessment, data-informed instruction, and integrating technology into teaching and learning. I am very passionate about fostering student achievement, critical thinking, and college and career readiness.
I am currently seeking opportunities to contribute expertise in Physics, Mathematics, and STEM education within a U.S. school district, while promoting inclusive learning environments and high expectations for all students.
