I will be tutoring Afaan Oromoo for Grades 7 and 8, and Environmental Science for Grades 5 and 6. I am passionate about creating an engaging, inclusive learning experience, especially by connecting classroom content with real-world knowledge in language, culture, and environmental awareness.

This tutoring is conducted via e-learning, and I am highly familiar with digital platforms such as Zoom Meet and Google Meet, as I am currently pursuing my MSc through online learning. I regularly attend advanced lectures and seminars delivered by senior scientists and professors from Europe, which has strengthened both my technical and virtual communication skills.

With two years of experience in teaching, tutoring, and academic consultancy, I’ve worked in schools such as Gibson School System and BeteSeb Academy, as well as through private tutoring. My teaching philosophy emphasizes clarity, interaction, and student empowerment.

I also have significant field experience in surveying and environmental analysis, including:

1 year as a surveyor at Abebe Fite General Contractor

1 year as an assistant surveyor at Fetene, Getahun & Friends

1 year as a senior surveyor at Woldesillassie Beyecha Construction

6 months as a survey consultant for urban planning projects

In addition, I have earned certifications in leadership, AI, data science, and digital skills, including:

Leadership Essentials – DisasterReady.org (March 2025)

Artificial Intelligence & Data Science Fundamentals – Udacity and Simplilearn (Feb. 2025)

Digital Skills Level 6 – Europass (March 2025)

In my civic roles, I’ve served as Green Club Leader at BeteSeb Academy and volunteered at the Urban Beautification and Green Development Office in Kolfe Keranyo Sub-city.

I consider myself to be collaborative, flexible, approachable, and a lifelong learner. My expectation in this program is to grow alongside students, share practical insights, and contribute to quality education through technology.

Please feel free to reach out to me for any questions or collaboration. I look forward to learning and working with you all.

Warm regards,
Belay Mengiste Gebremariam
