About
With nearly 15 years of diverse experience in post-16 education across the UK and the UAE, I bring a comprehensive background in teaching, teacher training, curriculum development, and educational leadership. I hold a Master’s in Educational Leadership and Management, a Certificate in Education, QTLS status, and I am a qualified assessor (CAVA certified). My expertise spans further education, vocational training, and adult learning, with a consistent focus on learner-centered methodologies and inclusive practice.
Currently serving as a freelance teacher trainer for a UK-based institution, I specialize in providing tailored coaching to trainee teachers, conducting microteaching observations, and leading curriculum quality assurance initiatives. In my previous roles, I have successfully delivered nationally accredited programs such as the City & Guilds Level 5 Diploma in Education and Training, trained educators in digital pedagogies, and led curriculum design for Emiratisation-aligned ESL programs in the UAE.
My career has been marked by a commitment to raising educational standards, supporting professional growth among educators, and promoting access to quality education, particularly among underserved and adult learner communities. Recognized for fostering student achievement, mentoring aspiring teachers, and leading effective program development, I continue to bring both strategic insight and practical classroom expertise to every educational environment I work in.
