About Jason Hoffman
Certified Elementary Teacher with 20+ years of Classroom Experience
I bring over 20 years of international teaching experience, having worked in diverse educational settings across Australia, England, the Cayman Islands, and the Middle East. Throughout my career, I have taught a variety of curricula, adapting my teaching strategies to best meet the needs of each learning context. For 13 years, I served as a Primary Years Program (PYP) teacher within the International Baccalaureate (IB) system, where I focused on inquiry-based learning. I employed differentiated instruction and hands-on methods to engage students at their individual levels, ensuring that each learner received the support and guidance needed to make continuous progress. My experience in multi-cultural and multi-ability environments has honed my ability to connect with students from diverse backgrounds, equipping them with the necessary skills and strategies to advance in their educational journeys.
