In this role as Head of Biology, I lead the horizontal and vertical alignment of the curriculum from Grade 7 through 12 and supported teachers in their classroom practice through providing supportive feedback classroom observation with the focus on students agency instead of teachers and leading in assessment for learning, assessment of learning and assessment as learning.

I also handled usual matters relating to budgeting and procurement of materials for the laboratory.

In this school, I supported a department with 4 biology teachers in areas such as assessment, design, planning, alignment and evaluation of the curriculum, and professional development of staff.

Apart from that, I had the opportunity to co-lead in preparation for the 5 years of IB evaluation for my school. It was a great opportunity for me to review and reflect on the strength and the weaknesses or limitations of my team as well as my own teaching and learning as an IB educator. I initiated the reflection with my team of teachers using SWOT analysis and develop strategies to improve and support our teaching, i.e. in particular to incorporate ATL skills within our lessons.

I have worked as a high school Biology teacher for 11 years full-time at various international schools in Malaysia and China, and have been appointed as head of Biology for 5 years . The programs that I am familiar includes IGCSE, SPM, STPM, CAIE and Edexcel A levels, AUSMAT, MUFY, SAM and IB Diploma.

As a teacher, I strongly believe that students should not be bombarded with loads of content knowledge but rather schools should equip students with real-life skills that enable them to address future unknown challenges. I strongly advocate for a curriculum and/or pedagogy that allow high student agency in the teaching and learning environment.

Being a teacher-leader, I believe in enabling my teachers to do well in their responsibilities instead of performing/managing their responsibilities on their behalf. I strongly believe in the statement - People do not care what you know unless they know that you cared! I advocate professional development and supports my teachers in equipping themselves so that they become a reflective educator within their milieu.

In this 21st century, teachers and students alike needs to be prepared in facing evolving challenges and unceasing changes! I see it as my responsibility to inculcate a positive classroom environment and collaborative working environment in meeting these challenges!

Wherever in the world your students want to go, help them get there with Cambridge IGCSE.

We created Cambridge IGCSE more than 30 years ago. Today, it's the world's most popular international qualification for 14 to 16 year olds. Not only is it truly international - it gives students more options than any other international qualification. That means more subjects to choose from, more ways to learn and more ways to succeed.

We align the standards of Cambridge IGCSE with the GCSE qualification taken in England. Learn more (PDF, 153KB)

I developed good relationship with allocated "subordinates" through being a guide by the side, instead of being a sage on the stage. I supported their pedagogy, lesson planning, evaluated them for improvement purposes and help them plan ahead in their development as a teacher.

I was also appointed to be the Director of Exams (Chief Presiding Examiner) in supporting whole-school for in-school formative and summative assessments as well as external examinations held for the CAIE and IBO. I also consolidate assessment data for analysis purposes in helping the leadership team to evaluate possible areas of improvement.
