Position/Title: Mathematics Teacher

Name of School: Orchard Collegiate Academy

DBN: 01M292 Superintendent: Carry Chan

Personal Statement: Math is a subject that I have always been passionate about and have enjoyed throughout my school years going back to my early childhood.

Fast forward today, it’s no surprise that I have obtained my Master’s degree in Pure Mathematics, and a School Building and District Leader Certification.

As an educator, I have been teaching for 17 years in Middle/High School level, with experience in ICT setting.

With an unyielding dedication to the field of Education, my goal is to provide the necessary instruction that will foster competence and stimulate interest in Math at large.

I would love to be a contributor in the journey of eradicating some of the common fear of math. I would love to hear this phrase “Math is not hard” more and more amongst my learners.

During my downtime, I enjoy traveling and doing different activities with my husband and my two lovely boys.
