I was awarded a Pass grade in my CELTA.
In the course of the program, I had eighteen (18) Standard ratings and five (5) Above Standard (S+) ratings for excellent classroom management skills, designing communicative language lessons with variety and engaging approaches, accurate language analysis appropriate for the classroom, establishing a good student-teacher rapport, and adaptation of resource materials amongst other cognate teaching skills. My tutors regularly commended my ability to put my students at ease and create a learning-friendly atmosphere.
Along with a Higher National Diploma in Mechanical Engineering which is equivalent to a Bachelor’s degree I have also completed the (TKT) Teaching Knowledge Test modules 1-3 in language background analysis, class management and lesson planning.

I am currently the Managing Partner/ Director of Studies an ESL Tutor at the Mathematics Place in Nigeria. These roles have enhanced my communication skills and fine-tuned my ability to creatively present logical teaching and classroom management techniques to my students.
