Dr. Navinder holds a PhD in TESL (specializing in extensive reading), an MEd in Assessment & Evaluation, a BA (Economics), a Postgrad Diploma in Teaching English, C2 CEFR certification, and recent training in generative AI and AI-assisted communication. With 30+ years of teaching and examining experience, she builds confidence through interactive, Bloom’s-taxonomy–based lessons—quizzes, mini-projects (Canva, flipbooks), and tech-enabled speaking/writing practice—personalized to each learner; a three-time Outstanding Teacher Award recipient and conference presenter, she also runs community reading programs. On weekends she plays pickleball, writes book reviews, and cooks for pleasure, and she loves helping learners share their stories.
