I have extensive experience teaching critical thinking, creativity, and innovation to teens, focusing on equipping them with practical tools to navigate academic and real-life challenges. Over the years, I have designed and led interactive workshops that empower young learners to think critically, brainstorm effectively, and approach problems with confidence and flexibility.
My teaching approach is rooted in fostering a supportive and engaging environment where students feel encouraged to explore their ideas, collaborate with peers, and take calculated risks in problem-solving. I incorporate techniques such as scenario analysis, brainstorming sessions, and creative challenges to make learning both fun and impactful.
In addition to hands-on teaching, I have guided students in applying these skills to real-world scenarios, from handling school projects to planning future careers. My aim is to nurture innovative thinking and resilience, ensuring that students leave with not just problem-solving skills, but also the confidence to tackle challenges independently and collaboratively.
