My Education

I hold a Bachelor of Business Administration in Human Resource Management from the American International University–Bangladesh (AIUB), and I completed both my GCE O-Level and A-Level at Dhanmondi Tutorial, an experience that laid a sturdy dual foundation in both pedagogy and administration. Ever eager to deepen my craft, I have also pursued certified training in Cambridge O-Level Mathematics and leadership development between 2014 and 2018.

My favorites

Beyond the classroom, beyond the chalk dust and the lesson plans, I have discovered my deepest joy in the spaces where teaching transcends into transformation. While I treasure the art of instruction, the alchemy of cooking, and the sharp, honest dance of debate, it is mentoring that stirs my soul most profoundly.

I have always held that growth is not meant to be hoarded, but shared. That conviction has led me to weave mentoring into the fabric of my daily life, not solely for my students, but alongside my colleagues as well. To guide, to listen, to challenge with gentleness - this is the quiet rhythm I long to pass on.

I am seldom content with the well-trodden path. I am endlessly curious, forever experimenting with new methods, fresh techniques, and bold strategies in my teaching. Yet my vision does not halt at my own door. I invite my teammates to walk this road with me, to embrace innovation together—not for the sake of change alone, but for the sake of something deeper: an academic culture that is forever reaching, forever evolving, forever alive.

Hi, I am Nancy Chowdhury,a mother of two beautiful daughters. I live with my family in our own home in Mohammadpur, one of the most densely populated and vibrant neighbourhoods in Dhaka.

For over twenty five years, I have had the privilege of serving at some of Dhaka's most distinguished schools, where I have built a reputation not merely as an educator, but as a mentor deeply invested in the holistic development of every student entrusted to my care. My expertise spans curriculum design, classroom management, student counselling, and the seamless integration of digital learning platforms such as Google Classroom and Zoom. As a communicator, I have had the honour of moderating debates at Scholastica and Dhanmondi Tutorial, and I formerly served as Vice President of the AIUB Debate Club—a role in which I guided young minds toward critical thinking and empowered them to articulate their convictions with poise and confidence. My unwavering commitment to fostering a nurturing and positive learning environment was recognised with two awards at Scholastica, in 2016 and 2018.

For me, learning is a lifelong pursuit, and my truest impact extends far beyond the pages of any textbook—it lives on in the many lives I have been privileged to inspire along the way.

Over the course of my career, I taught O-Level Mathematics at Scholastica for twelve years and, prior to that, served as a Senior Teacher at Dhanmondi Tutorial for eight years, shepherding countless students on their academic journeys. Beyond the classroom, I have embraced the responsibility of shaping fellow educators, leading workshops and professional development programmes at institutions including the British Columbia School and Mirpur DOHS Cantonment School & College.
