Hande joined BIS HCMC in August 2025 as a Mathematics Teacher, having previously taught at state and independent schools in the UK, including six years as Head of Mathematics. She began volunteering in schools at 16 through a programme offered by her sixth form college and continued similar roles throughout her university studies. Hande has always loved helping others understand mathematical concepts, particularly through the use of visual methods, and delights in seeing her students solve problems independently with this understanding.
Outside the classroom, she enjoys spending quality time with her family—especially playing games with her two young boys. She also enjoys Zumba, long chats with friends, and exploring arts and crafts activities.
