Ashim Dhakal

I am a committed and enthusiastic chemistry teacher with five years of professional experience, specialising in organic chemistry. Throughout my career, I have developed strong subject knowledge alongside the ability to deliver complex concepts in a clear, engaging, and structured manner. My key qualities include patience, adaptability, and a genuine passion for teaching, which allow me to create a supportive and inclusive classroom environment where all students feel confident to participate and learn. I believe in maintaining high expectations while also providing the necessary support for students of varying abilities to succeed.
In terms of teaching methods, I adopt a student-centred approach that encourages active learning and critical thinking. I regularly use real-life examples and practical applications to make abstract concepts more relatable and meaningful. My lessons often incorporate a mix of direct instruction, interactive discussions, problem solving tasks, and laboratory experiments to cater to different learning styles. I also implement differentiated instruction strategies to meet the needs of both high achieving students and those requiring additional support. Assessment is an integral part of my teaching, and I use both formative and summative methods to monitor progress and provide constructive feedback. Overall, my aim is to inspire curiosity, build confidence, and help students develop a deep and lasting understanding of chemistry.
