KOTA KINABALU: Sabahan Sydney Engelbert has been named the world’s best educator by the Cambridge Dedicated Teacher Awards.
She had previously won the 2024 Cambridge Dedicated Teachers Awards for the Southeast Asia and Pacific region, qualifying her for the overall award. “In an effort to enrich her students’ learning experience, she kickstarted an online exchange class in 2022 with several vocational schools in Malaysia, the Philippines, Cambodia and Indonesia.
Engelbert said her passion for teaching came naturally as her parents, uncles, aunts and cousins are all in the profession.Despite receiving numerous awards and recognition for their years of service, they often said that the proudest aspect of being a teacher is when former and current students remember and respect them," said Engelbert.
When she started her career in 2019, she learnt to tackle her students’ limited proficiency through a variety of language art activities. "We had to transition to online classes, something that was new to both our students and teachers. It was a challenging learning experience for all of us, requiring us to abandon our usual teaching methods and fully embrace digital materials," said Engelbert.
