Summary

I am a self-motivated, organized and hardworking individual with a penchant for teaching and performing arts with the aim of positively impacting the young people and imparting them with knowledge and prerequisite skills for personal development. My ultimate ambition is to establish a niche in English Language and Literature with an aura of literary affluence and iota of pride. I value teamwork and I believe in the spirit of working together for common good. I like being up to date with emerging trends in my field especially in those brought about by technology which I am passionate about.
