About Me
As a teacher, I have 20 years’ experience in teaching Business Studies and Accounting to O Levels, IGCSEs, A Levels, and IB diploma at various institutes in different countries including United States, United Kingdom, Indonesia, China, Syria and Pakistan.
Most recently, as an IB Programme Manager at Roots Millennium School I led the authorization process, successfully managing the implementation and development of the school from candidacy phase to authorization and post-authorization. This included training and guiding 15 teachers on various topics including curriculum development, course outline, IB philosophy, external and internal assessment, and linkages to Core (Theory of Knowledge, Extended Essay and CAS).
My project-based position with the Birmingham City Council’s Education Department as a Lifelong Learning Officer merged social policy formulation and execution with administration, event planning, coordination and outreach for 42 projects. I was involved in the entire gamut of the Department’s service areas, from Early Years to Adult Education, from Family Learning to Youth Service, as well as the city’s libraries. In addition, I was responsible for the Business Planning cycle within the Community Learning and Libraries Division. My responsibilities included writing Business Plans, as well as implementing and monitoring the delivery of the action plan. As a top official, I represented the Division at various events, organizing Lifelong Learning awards and the Year of Lifelong Learning Dissemination event.
To a great extent I attribute this success to my resistance to intellectual and professional complacency – I am continually learning new things and keep myself abreast of innovations in my disciplines. As a teacher, a planner and an administrator, I am committed to seeing things from multiple perspectives, and to confronting situations in flexible ways. I consider myself a sensitive cosmopolitan, an enthusiastic learner, a committed worker, and a problem-solver – and my various personal, educational and professional experiences have continually affirmed and encouraged this.
