Hello, thank you for taking a look at the Teacher Ije website. My name is Ijeoma (Ije) Nwaneri and I am an experienced teacher who has been working in primary schools for over 14 years. I am proud to be a primary specialist. Recently, I had the privilege of successfully teaching in secondary schools from Years 7 to 11. I also have experience working with adults of various ages and providing education-related CPD and non-teaching-related training.

I am known for my high expectations, creativity and subject knowledge and at Teacher Ije I bring these three ingredients together and the result is a rich and unique experience of learning that will equip other professionals and empower young minds.
