MYP Design Teacher
Stamford American International School Singapore // Singapore
July 2025 - Current
- Redesigned the MYP Design e-journal system, embedding generative AI tools such as NotebookLM, Gemini Custom Gems, and Flint to support ethical prototyping, instructional scaffolds, and EAL vocabulary scaffolds. This focus on instructional design and high-impact teaching strategies improved clarity, with student feedback indicating increased engagement in self-directed documentation and improved access to instructional materials.
- Contributed to curriculum review and vertical alignment under the Enhanced MYP framework, executing technical units in Open Source Robotics, Scaled Architecture, and 3D Modelling, that meet strict Cognita and IB expectations for industry-relevant skill building and unit documentation.
- Applied data-informed teaching using formative assessments, process journals, and a post-unit survey system to guide differentiation and unit revision. This rigorous approach cultivated a high-performance culture, evidenced by a 95% "Encourages Perseverance" score on the 2026 Voice of the Student Survey.
- Engineered a streamlined back-end reporting architecture for the Design department to solve reporting cohesion and inefficiency. The system became widely adopted by peers, significantly reducing administrative overhead during reporting cycles.
Mathematics and Computer Science Teacher, Emergent Technology Coach
TIS Macao // Macao SAR, China
August 2020 - July 2025
- Taught Grade 8 - 9 Mathematics and Grade 10 - 12 Computer Science, following Alberta Ministry of Education and IB standards, achieving standardized scores 11-17% above the assessment average.
- Developed 13 interdisciplinary MYP investigations for Grades 8 and 9, including designing task-specific assessment rubrics based on MYP Mathematics Criteria, and training on the usage of generative AI tools to assist with rubric creation.
- Developed and revised internal assessments for Grades 7 through 9 (MYP 2 through 4), including blueprint maps and mark schemes. Ensured assessments aligned with MYP Mathematics command terms, IB MYP content benchmarks, and the Alberta program of studies for a thorough and standardized evaluation process. Assessment data analysis confirmed internal grading aligned within 5% of external benchmarks.
- Led professional development workshops on Google Workspace productivity strategies, Generative AI, and VR/AR, which received widely positive feedback and resulted in self-reported workload improvements and stress reduction among participants, and provided new avenues for authentic emergent technology use for learning.
- Consolidated and reorganized Secondary Mathematics resources, creating comprehensive informational documentation. This initiative enhanced both synchronous and asynchronous collaboration among teachers, improved transparency between grade levels, and provided a structured repository for resource continuity. These enhancements resulted in better internal benchmark tracking and improved retention of institutional knowledge, ultimately implemented across all of Secondary.
- Expanded a Mathematics competition program that provided further avenues for Mathematical learning, resulting in a 35% increase in participation over two years, with students earning accolades, recognition, and prizes.
