I was inspired to teach when my son was underperforming in school, and there wasn’t much I could do to assist him. I started as a pretrained teacher, then pursued a diploma in primary education in Jamaica. The knowledge I gained wasn’t sufficient to handle the reading challenges in my classroom, hence I attained a bachelor’s degree in education (majoring in Literacy Studies) from the University of the West Indies. This has helped in developing my students’ reading abilities.
