I have over 12 years (periods ranging from as far back as 2009 up until date-2023) of both in-class (large group)/high school settings and private (on-on-one home lessons inclusive) of teaching/tutoring GSCE/WASSCE/NECO/A-Level/Senior Class High School students mainly in Mathematics, Further Mathematics and the pure sciences-Physics and Chemistry. I have developed my expertise in teaching/tutoring during the course of these years of engaging in active tutoring of various categories of students such that I can always come down to the students’ level and simplify my teaching contents as far as possible. My teaching methods are highly illustrative and practically oriented (I love to use practical phenomena-at home, in the environment etc. to deepen the students understanding of concepts particularly in subjects such as Physics and Chemistry). These methods have produced tremendous positive results over the years as virtually all my students excelled in various national and international examinations with very high grades. I have marking experience in markings of national and international examinations such as West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE), Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE), General Certificate Examination (GCE) etc. I also have a practically oriented publication (some copies sold locally) in chemistry for senior high school students. I have also attended some teaching workshops and seminars over the course of these years. Another unique feature about my teaching technique is that they are designed to bring up low performing students to become high performing students and this is evident in several cases I can point to. I have worked as both full time and part time teacher/tutor in various High Schools, Colleges and Coaching Centres and I sometimes run a tutorial centre in my home country in a few years back.
I wish to emphasize that although, my degrees attained so far were major in the field of engineering, I wish to emphasize that I am a born teacher who sees teaching as a way of helping humanity and thus it is my natural hobby. Although I have also acquired some professional teaching skills and participate in teachers’ workshops over the course of my years of engaging in active tutoring. I have a very strong passion for teaching, and I see this as my calling to contribute to humanity apart from earning a reward for it.
