Before PgCTL, I was already a tutor and teacher for 9 years.

There is a huge difference in my teaching practice now.

I wanted to develop a strong understanding of best practices in teaching and learning and apply those skills.

I got a job offer within 6 months and received the golden apple award for setting an outstanding learning environment.

I had no idea that Suraasa was going to be a life changing platform for me.

I cracked job interviews in 3 dream schools and was acknowledged for establishing consistent teaching and learning practices.

I did not know about teaching theories, strategies and their correct terminologies.

I got a new job as a Planner. Students connect beautifully with my lessons and I evaluate them through data regularly.

I joined the school as a homeroom teacher and wanted to grow.

Now I am able to reflect upon my teaching practices which is a process of self observation. I became the Subject Coordinator in 6 months.

I was working as a Support Teacher.

I got a new job and a 50% increment in my salary.

I didn't know much about lesson planning, assessments and questioning skills.

My learning coach recorded my video of interaction with students and held a meeting to show it to all the teachers.

I wanted to obtain my teaching license and grow in my career.

I implemented strategies that increased student participation, attendance and led to better perfomance on assessments.

I was struggling when I came to UAE and applied to several schools but in vain.

My learning of modules have enabled me to stand out among my colleagues and collaborate effectively with 21st Century classrooms.

I was demotivated because of failed interviews due to lack of teaching experience in the UAE.

I am now achieving milestones in teaching and receiving compliments from my line manager as appraisals.

Lesson planning was acceptable/good Communication and feedback was limited to PTMs.

I reflect on my teaching strategies, and have fine tuned myself. The course has taught me the finer details of lesson planning and how to execute them well.

I wasn't sure about how I could balance my personal life, work life and getting a teaching qualification.

I was a good teacher before joining Suraasa but now I am a much more refined teacher.

I made a promise to myself that I'll gain this qualification.

The strategies I've learned have helped me better engagement with my students. I'm more confident now and take more risks.

I had the responsibilty of finding the right distane learning program during the pandemic.

I enrolled myself in PgCTL and found solutions and communicated my learnings with colleagues.

I was working at the same place for 3 years and wanted change.

The interview and pedagogy skills I learned helped me get a new job.

I was struggling in shifting from an interior designer to a teacher.

I got 4 interviews and cracked 2 out of them. I am now able to put lessons together and run effective online learning.

I was actively pursuing a teaching opportunity in one of the best Schools in Dubai.

I bagged my dream job because of PgCTL and gained renewed self confidence, a drive of motivation and a fresh outlook.

I moved to Dubai and was looking for a career progression. I was looking for a platform that would increase my employability.

The concepts I learned have helped me immensely in improving my teaching and settle in my new environment.

My lesson implementation was good.

I have advanced my reflective teaching practices which has led to better achievement of goals. My lesson implementation has progressed from good to an outstanding level.

I had subject expertise but was lacking pedagogical skills.

Now I am able to successfully implement various teaching styles and theories in my lessons.

Entering a class was a different experience. The level of confidence as a teacher was much lower.

Way of teaching has changed and is now more focussed on the students' needs. I am motivated, confident and have embraced technology.

I did not know much about teaching theories and strategies.

I can now design my lessons by using different styles and assess students using formative and summative assessment. I can also use technology more effectively now.

I was an ambitious educator who wanted to be known as an outstanding teacher with unique skills and exceptional talents.

I now picture myself as a 21st Century educator who is strongly determined to demonstrate the roles of a teacher and a leader. I can deliver quality education with best teaching and learning practices.

I was making good lessons and creating a nice engaging atmosphere in the classroom.

My passion for teaching has transformed into more exciting, fun-filled, differentiated, well-planned & structured lessons which engage my students and have helped them become passionate learners.

I was always inclined towards teaching but couldn't figure out a way to transition into this domain.

Each class gives me a sense of relief.

A very strong passion to teach was there but the skill was lacking.

The course helped me think more strategically and implement new ideas that have made such a huge difference in the performance of my learners.

I wanted to gain teaching qualifications as part of the KHDA requirements and self development.

I am more confident in handling students and can teach more effectively.

I loved being a part of activities but lacked confidence when it came to action.

I have learned to stay self motivated and my readiness level to accept any challenge has increased.

I wanted to bring change to life and facilitate learning to my learners.

I can now create more engaging and well-organized lesson plans.
