My name is Sophia Rhodes, and I am thrilled to be part of the founding Secondary team at Dubai British School Jumeira, where I will be teaching Mathematics.
I hold a degree in Mathematics and Teaching from the University of Chichester and have over four years of experience teaching Key Stage 3 and 4 Maths in both the UK and Dubai.
I am passionate about helping students develop confidence in Maths, encouraging them to see the subject not just as numbers, but as a way of thinking, problem-solving, and making sense of the world. In my classroom, I strive to create a supportive yet challenging environment, where students are encouraged to take risks, grow in resilience, and celebrate their achievements. Above all, I hope to inspire in them the same curiosity and love for Mathematics that I have.
I am excited to play a role in shaping the future of DBSJ and to support our students as they begin this exciting new stage of their education.
