Career

Experience

  • Delivered instructional content to students in a clear manner.
  • Mentored incoming first-year instructors on their work methods.
  • Helped ensure safe operations through session planning, condition evaluation, etc.
  • Planned and ran a two-day overnight experience for the incoming IB class, helping them get used to each other, while running information sessions in a fun and enjoyable way.
  • Designed, found speakers for, and operated a conference in downtown Vancouver for my peers about life beyond grade 12, inviting speakers from varied backgrounds to give their inputs and allow us to learn from them.
  • Exemplified by our mission statement: The Churchill IB Directors aim to take initiative for the next generation of IB learners in their journey to international and peace-minded thinking, as well as that of our own cohort to post-secondary school life. We hope to serve as role models who exemplify the approaches to learning thereby inspiring the next generation to become lifelong learners.
