Our commitment to excellence extends beyond the classroom, as we actively engage with stakeholders, collaborate with educational institutions, and contribute to the advancement of pedagogy through research and innovation.

Meet Our Faculty

“My role as an educator is to serve as a guide, facilitator, and motivator, empowering students minds to explore, discover, and grow academically, socially, and emotionally, whilst fostering a love for learning and the confidence to succeed. Discovering the key to a student’s learning opens the door to a world of infinite possibilities.”

Shabab Naqvi
Department of Math & Physics
“Minds are like parachutes. They only function when they are ‘open’. As a teacher, I would concur with Einstein’s famous quote, that: ‘If you can’t explain it simply, you don’t understand it well enough,’ and I base my teaching and learning around this key precept, which has become my mission statement.”

“I believe in teaching not only English and other subjects, but life skills which empower students to navigate a globalized world. Encouraging critical thinking and creativity through the exploration of language and literature are also equally important today.”
Michelle Grivich
Departments of English & ESL
“Believing in the potential of every student, regardless of their background or starting point is at the root of all learning. We must teach not just English, but life skills that empower students to navigate a globalized world.”

“Inspiring critical thinking and empathy through the study of societies, cultures, and human behavior, alongside nurturing a love for language that transcends borders and opens minds are my goals as a teacher.”
