"Over 35 years of experience in English Language teaching/training and assessment, of which 27 years have been in Bahrain. I started my teaching career in Bahrain in 1992 and then worked as Deputy Manager for a leading language school in Bahrain for 15 years. My primary responsibilities included developing English as a second language programs, placement of students within the language programs and implementing teaching, learning and achievement standards. Currently I work as a freelance English Language consultant. Since 2012, I have worked as an English language specialist reviewer with BQA, the Education and Training Quality Authority in Bahrain. The scope of my work includes reviewing all aspects of the quality of English programs/courses offered at vocational institutes or training centers. I am also a consultant member on Program Verification and Validation Panel of the Directorate of National Qualification Framework (GDNQF) and my responsibilities include reviewing institutional listing applications and verifying the validation standards of the qualifications. I also tutor students who need to develop their language skills either for professional or academic purposes. I am an avid advocate for a plastic- free world and in my free time, I volunteer for some not- for- profit organizations that undertake environmental initiatives. I also am a keen sports enthusiast.
