About
I am a qualified and experienced Science Teacher with over 17 years of teaching experience in Nigeria and the United Kingdom. I hold a B.Sc. (Ed.) in Integrated Science, a Master’s degree in Educational Technology, an MSc in Public Health, and Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) in the UK. I am experienced in teaching Biology, Chemistry and Physics across Key Stages 3 and 4 and have a strong commitment to helping students develop their knowledge, confidence and enthusiasm for science.
Throughout my career, I have developed strong skills in classroom management, lesson planning, differentiation, assessment and behaviour management. I use practical, inquiry-based and engaging teaching approaches to make scientific concepts accessible to students with different abilities and learning needs. I have experience supporting students with SEND and challenging behaviour and believe strongly that no child should be left behind. I also have experience using digital learning platforms and school systems to monitor progress, set homework, record behaviour and communicate effectively with colleagues and parents.
Before working in the UK, I gained extensive teaching experience in Nigeria, where I taught Science and held additional responsibilities within the school. I also worked as a Graduate Teaching Assistant at the University of Lagos, teaching Health Education to undergraduate students. My wider experience includes public health education and community outreach, which has strengthened my communication, organisation and interpersonal skills.
Since moving to the UK, I have worked in secondary schools and through teaching agencies, gaining experience of different school environments, curricula and behaviour-management systems. I have taught a range of science topics and have experience planning and delivering lessons, assessing students' work, supporting individual learning needs and contributing to students' academic and personal development.
One of my key achievements is successfully developing a broad teaching career across two different education systems while obtaining UK QTS and continuing to develop my professional practice. I am also proud of my ability to build positive relationships with students and colleagues and to create an inclusive classroom environment where students feel supported and encouraged to achieve their potential.
I am hardworking, adaptable, reliable and committed to continuous professional development. I bring strong subject knowledge, practical teaching experience, excellent communication skills and a positive attitude to every role. I am particularly passionate about science education and enjoy helping students understand how scientific knowledge relates to everyday life and the world around them.
