OBJECTIVE
'To wish for a change, will not change anything but to work on a change will change everything'.
To change students’ lives academically and personally, we as teachers MUST always be ready to take our students’ hands, open their mind and touch their hearts with our sincerity and passion, and treat them with respect and dignity as our own children. When they know we are sincerely here for them, we will be able to provide our students with all the knowledge they need, and give them our undivided continuous support in ensuring them to move toward greater heights and better future.
Therefore, I sincerely hope to obtain a teaching position in an educational institution that will allow me in enhancing and refining my teaching skills while sharing my principles in teaching, and contributing my unreserved knowledge, expertise, experience and enthusiasm to the faculty and students.
