I have a master's degree in English. I teach students aged 17-19. I am proficient at test construction. I always contribute to designing regional tests for all secondary levels (at high school). Also, I annually suggest national English baccalaureate exams for either arts or scientific branches.
Since 2010, I have taught and/or trained many graduates in different fields of specialization including commerce, engineering, English, business...
I became a member of TEARN in 2015, I attended several conferences organized by TEARN in Tunisia. I also attended several exhibitions of projects made by students here in Tunisia, mainly in Sfax with Mrs Aida Abida. My first personal contribution with iEARN was this year (2017-2018) with the Bridge Programme, I successfully completed the Bridge online course, and then my students contibuted with an excellent project entitled My Identity. Your Identity. It was an amazing experience from which both my students and I have benefited a lot. My students are eager to do other projects with iEARN as they enjoyed the experience sooooo much, especially the fact of connecting, chatting and discussing with peers from many parts of the world... We are really grateful to iEARN.
