Murree

• Pakistan

• Head of Mathematics and Physics

  • Aug 2012 - Jul 2015

  I taught Calculus for students doing AP exams with 70% achieving 4s or 5s (100% 5s in 2015). I introduced the IGCSE to provide a fully differentiated curriculum so that mathematically less able students could take the Core Level course and achieve a pass, while the stronger students were stretched and prepared for Pre-Calc and Calculus. The students achieved a 100% pass rate. I also taught Physics at "honors level". I taught Calculus for students doing AP exams with 70% achieving 4s or 5s (100% 5s in 2015).
