Middle/High School Mathematics & Science Teacher

About ISP

The International School of Pemba (ISP) was founded in 2007 to build a space for students to grow, learn and create. We offer a stimulating learning environment that is child-centered, culturally diverse and relaxed; where young children are nurtured and encouraged to be environmentally conscious, independent thinkers. We believe that our school provides a lifetime’s investment in children’s life skills. Our teachers support and encourage a Project-Based Learning (PBL) and Inquiry-Based Learning (IBL) approach. PBL involves a dynamic classroom study in which students acquire a deeper knowledge through active exploration of real-world challenges and problems. IBL is active learning that starts from a place of questioning and problem solving which encourages a 'Growth Mindset'.
