Form 5

Private Canidates

Biography  : I am a proud scholarship recipient in the field of Natural Sciences and a graduate of Naparima Girls' High School. I earned a First-Class Honours degree in Chemical & Process Engineering from the University of the West Indies, securing a place in one of the most competitive engineering programs, which admitted only 32 students that year.

Recognized by the Ministry of Education as a Mathematics/Additional Mathematics Teacher II, I am currently pursuing further studies at the University of the West Indies to advance to Teacher III status. With five years of teaching experience, I specialize in CSEC Chemistry and Physics, as well as CAPE Chemistry and Physics. It has been incredibly rewarding to witness my students achieve Grade 1s and 2s in recent years.

In addition to teaching, I am a CSEC Chemistry exam marker for the Caribbean Examination Council (CXC), which makes me well-equipped to prepare students for success. Looking ahead, I plan to pursue a master’s degree in Chemistry with the goal of becoming a CSEC and CAPE Moderator for CXC.

Form 5 (Jamaica)

Biography  : I am a dedicated Chemistry educator with 17 years of experience teaching at the CSEC and CAPE levels. Throughout my career, I have primarily taught at Hillview College, where I have made a meaningful impact on my students’ academic journeys. 

My most recent CSEC class achieved outstanding results, with 23 students earning Grade Ones and 2 earning Grade Twos. I am passionate about fostering a deep understanding of Chemistry and helping students reach their full potential.
