University of Queensland, Australia

Work experience:
I have taught for ten years in numerous international schools in Australia, United Kingdom, China, and the Russian Federation.

What makes you a good teacher?
The decision to enter the field of education was an obvious choice for me, as I have always been captivated by the challenges and complexities of science. I am confident that by sharing my knowledge and passion with my students, I can spark a curiosity and fondness for the subject that will endure long after they have left my classroom. One method I use to motivate my students is by making science practical and interesting. I work to link the concepts we study in class to real-world applications and current events, demonstrating to students how science influences their daily lives. Through hands-on experiments, interactive activities, and engaging resources, my aim is to establish a lively and engaging learning environment that promotes active involvement and critical thinking. To establish a connection with my students, I strive to build strong relationships based on trust, respect, and empathy. I take the time to listen to their questions, ambitions, and interests, and adjust my teaching approach to suit their specific needs and learning styles. By demonstrating genuine care and understanding, I create a secure and supportive atmosphere where students feel at ease expressing themselves and exploring new ideas.

Achievements:
Completing my PhD in Chemistry that helped lead to the creation of a new field of research was a proud moment in my life.

Lifestyle:
I have always been an avid fan of cricket, volleyball and football (Tottenham Hotspurs). When I am back at home in Australia, I also enjoy swimming and surfing at the beach.

Dreams & Ambitions:
My ambition is to make a positive impact on the lives of my students, equipping them with the knowledge, skills, and values they need to become successful and responsible members of society.
