Temitayo O.

My name is Temitayo, and I am a native of Lagos, Nigeria. I migrated to the United States in pursuit of higher education and a better standard of living. After relocating to the United States, I acquired my bachelor’s degree in communications with a concentration in Multimedia Journalism with my minor in Mathematics, from Dillard University in New Orleans. Additionally, I obtained a master’s degree in S.T.E.M. Education from Concordia University Nebraska in Seward. On a personal level, I believe that education is an indispensable aspect of human existence and, hence, a vital part of our infrastructure. Because of this principle that I have espoused, I have dedicated myself to the education of others, as a way of life.

Additionally, I enjoy sports, physical fitness exercises, fictional movies, cooking, learning new languages, reading books, as well as engaging in domestic chores. Furthermore, I have a proclivity for traveling to new places, as a means of territorial exploration. Indeed, education for me is more than an occupation; it is, in fact, my vocation. In conclusion, I intend to merge my Christian tenets with my educational practice, as I tutor my diverse clientele.
