My name is Carol Vickers, and I am a Human Ecology teacher at Foga Road High School, which is located in Denbigh, Clarendon. I have served as an educator for over 25 years and currently serve as the sixth form Coordinator. I am also a certified NCTVET assessor and internal verifier. "Life never stands still." There is always something more to do or see. This propels me to be a part of the cohort 7 mentorship training to develop professionally.
Being a dedicated educator for so many years, I have realized that when you are passionate about your pursuit, your ability to remain passionate about what you stand for is the ultimate enabler for your success. As a Human Ecology teacher, I tried to inspire my students to achieve their full potential by fostering a passion for learning and personal growth. I believe in empowering my students at all levels. This helps them to be more responsible, confident, and focused to take on a task and be able to make their own decision in getting the task done. This empowerment encourages innovation and accountability, which usually leads to better performance outcomes among my students.
My philosophy: "The best teachers are those who tell you where to look - but don't tell you what to see"
