About the teacher

Ms. Huma

Hi! My name is Huma. I am a certified elementary school teacher. I got my Bachelor of Education degree from the University of Toronto and my Master of Science degree from the University of London (U.K.)  I am also TESOL certified and hold additional qualifications in teaching kindergarten, students with special needs and English language learners. I have been teaching for over 23 years now.

I strive to know each of my student’s strengths and needs and then adjust the starting point for my teaching to match their abilities. This makes my lessons interesting and stimulating for every student and keeps them actively engaged in learning new things and become lifelong learners and problem solvers.

My teaching philosophy is a three-step process of “I do, you watch“, “Let us do it together”, “You do, I watch”. I provide my students with clear learning goals and instructions for each lesson.  I give them descriptive feedback on their efforts to help them improve and reach their full potential.
