Summary

I’m a multilingual professional (Arabic, English and Portuguese), with over 10 years’ experience in the educational field working both primary schools and private teaching, with experience in Early childhood supervision. Chemistry and general science teaching secondary level,with a multicultural background (Jordan and Brazil) as well as academically qualified with bachelor’s degree in chemistry, I am an organized and result oriented professional.

My interest in education comes from my desire to change the educational process from the traditional way to the way that makes the students the center of the educational process, by encouraging them to think independently and drive their own learning.
