Summary

Hello! My name is Czarina, a Licensed Professional Teacher from the Philippines with a degree in Bachelor of Secondary Education major in Social Science, from the Philippine Normal University. I began my teaching journey as an Assistant Teacher during my Grade 12 work immersion, which laid the foundation for my passion in education. This passion continued through my teaching internship in 2022 and eventually led me to serve as the Lead Social Science Teacher at Centro de Cultura School from 2023 to 2025. In this role, I handled subjects such as World History, Contemporary Issues, Economics, and Philosophy, and also worked with primary students, demonstrating my versatility across year levels. My teaching philosophy is grounded in connecting classroom content to real-world contexts. I believe that meaningful education empowers students not just to learn facts, but to become critical thinkers, empathetic individuals, and responsible global citizens. I also bring experience as a student leader and performing arts adviser, which has allowed me to support student development both inside and outside the classroom. I am now seeking an opportunity to teach History or any Social Science subject, particularly in an institution that values academic excellence, holistic education, and global citizenship. I am excited to contribute to a learning community where I can continue to grow professionally and inspire students to make meaningful contributions to the world.
