Highly experienced in teaching and leading learners to excellence in ICT IGCSE with over 2000 scripts marked for students in different parts of the world as an approved Cambridge Assessment International Examination examiner. I am an educator with a strong bias in developing a whole child. I have taught ICT in primary and secondary schools. I have also taught pre-university students. My experience aligns well with the qualifications for CIE IGCSE as required by this great institution. I am an approved CAIE (Cambridge Assessment International Examination) Assistant Examiner, and I have marked over 2000 live ICT IGCSE scripts. Also, I am a verified, certified and qualified Microsoft Office Specialist in Word 2016 (with a perfect score of 1000/1000), Excel 2016, PowerPoint 2016 and Access 2016. With more than eight years experience as an ICT Teacher and approved CAIE Assistant Examiner, I am versatile in the Cambridge IGCSE curriculum, adept in classroom management, and student improvement plans. Moreover, while my on-the-job experience has afforded me a well-rounded skill set, including first-rate interpersonal and time management abilities, I excel at: • Explaining difficult concepts in simple ways. • Imparting knowledge in students for optimal results. • Solid grasp of the ICT IGCSE syllabus and its dissemination. • Training staff and students on state-of-the-art technologies. • Achieving excellence through creativity. • Efficient multi-tasking. • Result-oriented research, etc. In addition to my experience and personal qualities, I have a solid educational foundation and a passion for ICT. I am extremely enthusiastic on educating a whole child to become rounded citizens of the future world and achieving higher standards through creativity with outstanding results. Thank you. Semiu O.
