Hello! I'm Mrs Umm Yunus, and I’ve had the joy of teaching students from diverse
backgrounds and age groups for over a decade, helping them discover their
potential and achieve their goals. My teaching career began with a focus on
secondary education, specifically with students in Years 7, 8, 9, and 10, although
over time I have transitioned to a primary school teacher focusing on students in
Key Stage 2 of the English National Curriculum. The transition to online learning
during the COVID-19 pandemic opened my eyes to the incredible possibilities of
digital education. It was in this virtual classroom that I witnessed firsthand the
power of online learning, where students from across the globe came together to
engage in rich, collaborative educational experiences.
As someone who was homeschooled and benefited from one-on-one instruction, I
have a unique perspective on secular education. This background has ingrained in me the belief that every student has the potential to excel when given personalised
attention and tailored support. My approach to education challenges the
conventional "one-size-fits-all" model, advocating instead for a learning
environment that is adaptable and responsive to each student’s needs. This
philosophy inspired me to design my own curriculum and assessments,
emphasising the importance of individual growth and understanding.
Joining My Education Online has been a natural and fulfilling progression in my
career. Here, I am empowered to craft lessons that not only adhere to the English
National Curriculum but also resonate with the unique learning styles and goals of
each student. This flexibility allows me to foster an environment where students can
truly thrive.
I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Science from The Open University and have
dedicated over six years to studying Adolescent Psychology through The
International Open University. This academic background, combined with my
practical teaching experience, enables me to support students through the critical
stages of their development, ensuring they are not only academically successful but
also emotionally and socially equipped for the future.
At My Education Online, I am committed to delivering an education that is both
rigorous and compassionate, helping each student reach their full potential.
