Summary

MSC Business at the University of Northumbria, United Kingdom, I am excited to

share my enthusiasm for finance and management and my passion for teaching with the
academic community. With a Bachelors of Commerce in Cost and Works Accounting and a
wealth of work experience in various industries, I am equipped with the necessary
skills and knowledge to make a positive contribution to the university.
During my academic journey, I have developed a keen eye for detail and an
analytical mindset through the demanding nature of assignments and research. This
has also instilled in me strong time management skills, which I believe are crucial
in the academic world. Along with these skills, I have also cultivated a passion
for innovation and creativity, which I believe are essential for the growth and
progress of any institution.
My work experience has given me ample opportunities to interact with a diverse
range of customers and colleagues, which has greatly enhanced my interpersonal and
communication skills. I am always eager to learn and develop new skills, and I
believe that working in an academic environment will provide me with continuous
opportunities for growth and learning.
Having undergone a currency trading course by Learn to Trade London by Greg Secker
during my stay in the United Kingdom, I have gained valuable insights into the
practical aspects of finance and management. I am eager to share this knowledge and
experience with students, to provide them with a practical perspective that will
enhance their future prospects.
My ultimate goal in the education sector is to make a positive impact in students'
lives by imparting practical and relevant knowledge, and equipping them with the
necessary skills for success in their future endeavors. I am dedicated to
continuously improving my teaching methods and incorporating new ideas to make the
learning experience more engaging and effective.
