About Me

Hi everyone! I’m Carla, and I am your Science teacher here at Campus 3, covering Biology, Chemistry, and Physics.

I have three years of teaching experience, including two years delivering IGCSE Science, and I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Secondary Education with a major in Biology, as well as completed academic units toward a Master’s in Science Education.

My goal in every lesson is to make Science engaging, inquiry-based, and connected to real life. Through the Cambridge curriculum, I aim to develop students’ scientific knowledge, practical skills, critical thinking, and problem-solving abilities. I want every student who leaves my classroom to feel like a more confident, curious, and independent scientific thinker.

Outside of school, I love being active and outdoors. I am into freediving, hiking, basketball, and pickleball and I have done quite a bit of both underwater and on mountains here in Vietnam.
