Graduate School Application Essay

I am a passionate and influential Science and Math educator, who has been motivating and inspiring the learners for last twelve years locally and internationally. Born and raised in a family in Nepal, which values education highly, I learned the importance of education in my early age. Afterwards, I choose to teach over pursuing my career in the research field in Chemistry after completing Master’s degree in Chemistry seeing the need of effective educators in this field. Since then I have been consistently trying to make the learning of Science and Math tempting and interesting using project-based, game-based, hands-on activities and tech-integration learning activities. My nature of connecting learning Science and Math in the classroom with daily life activities helped me to stand as a distinguished student. Eventually, I developed an immense love for these subjects Now, as an educator, I am trying to pass that to my students.

Before I came to Egypt for my first international teaching job in 2016, I used to tutor students in Nepal from British IGCSE and GCE A-level, IB, Nepali National Board, and Indian CBSE board system. As a result, I was able to cream off the best practices from different systems in my teaching. I wanted to teach overseas in International schools. As a matter of fact, I learned that I need a teaching credential to be eligible to put my footstep international teaching arena. Therefore, I enrolled in a teacher preparation program offered by Teach Now, Washington DC and earned Secondary Chemistry Teacher Credential from District of Columbia. I am proud of my performance that made of eligible for ETS Recognition of Excellence Award for individual outstanding performance in Chemistry Content Praxis
