Shiela G.

I am Rona from the Philippines, a dedicated educator with both a Bachelor's and a Master's Degree in Education, and a Licensed Professional Teacher since 2017. With over six years of teaching experience, I have been passionate about inspiring young minds and fostering a deep love for learning. I have taught various subjects, including English, Math, Science, and Arts, and my specialization in General Education allows me the flexibility to teach across different disciplines. My teaching approach combines positive reinforcement with tailored lessons to suit each student’s unique learning style. I strive to create a nurturing environment where every learner feels valued and empowered to succeed. I am excited to continue making a positive impact in students' lives, helping them develop confidence and a lifelong enthusiasm for learning. Southern Luzon State University provided me with both foundational and advanced knowledge in education, equipping me with essential skills in teaching and educational leadership. The comprehensive programs offered by the university have strengthened my expertise and broadened my career opportunities, allowing me to bring innovative, research-based approaches to my classroom. Through my studies there, I gained a solid foundation in educational theory and practice, as well as specialized knowledge that empowers me to make a meaningful impact on my students’ learning experiences.

Hello! I'm Ma. Nuelma Villa, and I am a TEFL Certified English Teacher. I hold a degree in Special Education and am currently completing the final stage of my Master's program. I've been teaching students at various levels for over a decade and I've developed a keen ability to connect with my students and inspire them to reach their full potential. I am passionate about making my students' learning interactive and exciting. I enjoy exploring and learning digital tools and strategies to help enhance my students' online learning experiences. When I'm not in the classroom, I enjoy baking and exploring nature, which often inspires my lessons. My goal as a teacher is to foster a supportive and dynamic virtual environment where each of my student can thrive and develop a lifelong love for learning. I graduated with a bachelor's degree in Special Education and in my last step of finishing my Master's Degree in Special Education too. I have more than 10 years of experience tutoring and teaching at various levels. I've had the opportunity to work with diverse student groups and develop a broad range of instructional strategies. My background includes working in both primary and secondary education where I've focused on fostering engaging learning environment and adapting to the needs of my students.

Alongside this, I am currently completing my degree in Zoology. I can teach a variety of age groups and subjects including maths, biology, general sciences, geography, zoology, and English at primary and KS3 levels—as well as English literature, English language, biology, psychology, zoology and geography at GCSE.

I have quite a few students currently that are SEND and have been successful with them so far. Preferred student age group: Primary age up to GCSE, and any ESL/TEFL students wanting to learn English I have many hobbies including music, reading fiction and non-fiction and learning new things from scientific literature. I would like to say that I'm always doing a hobby that is interesting and productive but I also love watching movies in bed and taking lovely, long walks around town with my headphones on. As a student that prioritised my grades and my studies so much, I understand far too well how it can affect your mental health and well-being. Making sure my students are happy and confident is my number one priority, and I will ensure that I act as a supportive and compassionate tutor.
