Accomplishments

Since I became a fully basic 9 math teacher, I have achieved my set targets from 50% to 100% of 2021 to 2022 BECE results which was as a result of my recommendations to parents to get their wards proper and certified teaching and learning materials like approved text books for BECE candidates and also extra work after school to help students academically.

2020/2021 academic year, I received best subject award for the year from my school during Parent-Teachers meeting

This has encouraged my colleagues teachers to do same and now our students are performing better.
