Dr. Angela Jebailey was my IB HL Biology teacher in 2017-2018. Definitely one of the best teachers I have had. She was very good at explaining the IB Biology curriculum in an organized and comprehensive fashion. I also like how she was realistic with us when it came to the amount of work one had to do to be successful in IB Biology. She gave her students all the right tools to succeed which is why I’m not surprised that her classes did well in the IB exams. In addition to being a great teacher, she was also a great person that students would regularly come to for advice in their life.
I don't believe words could describe how grateful I am for Ms.Jebailey being such a supportive teacher. My experience with her as my IB HL Biology teacher was simply amazing. I really enjoyed her teaching style in which she took every detail step by step, adding information with her own drawings. She was also one of the teachers who helped me enjoy learning about biological processes and of course to achieve a 7 in my final IB grade.
I was lucky to have such an exceptional teacher for both grades 11 and 12 IB BIOLOGY HL. Dr. Jebailey really kept a mark in these two years as she simplified all the material and made the classes very beneficial and unforgettable. With that being said, with all her expertise, she helped me go from a 5 to a 6. I may have always had interest in biology, but Dr. Jebailey really set the bar real high and inspired me to pursue my undergraduate degree in psychology and public health, which both have loads of biology in them. Thank you Dr. Jebailey for all the efforts you’ve put into giving us the best education!
My experience with Ms. Jebailey as my IB Biology teacher at a higher level was nothing but beneficial towards my journey as a student. Her constant support throughout the two years of the syllabus allowed me to fully take in the large amount of content that IB Biology offered. On top of that, her guidance towards tackling certain types of questions allowed me to exceed my boundaries and become a better student than I was before meeting her as a teacher.
I came to DAA in grade 12 and immediately had the full support of Ms. jebailey. Whenever I had doubts on biology concepts and labs, I could always ask for help from her. Dr. Jebailey is an enthusiastic teacher that made every student of hers love IB biology with a passion. I’m very thankful for everything I learned with Ms. Jebailey and I wish she was my biology professor in college :)
Dr. Angela Jebailey was my IB Biology teacher and she really made a complex topic exciting and easier to learn. I remember a lot of her lessons were not only educational but fun.
Dr. Jebailey was a fantastic IB teacher -- she was able to broach the challenging IB curriculum in a way that made the class engaging, intellectually interesting, and fun. Outside of the classroom, Dr. Jebailey is a caring advisor and confidant to her students, ensuring they have a nurturing environment beyond academics.
Dr. Jebailey was the best teacher I could’ve asked for while I was doing HL Biology. She covered exactly the content needed for the exam, and was able to teach everything in detail, which helped so much with my understanding of every topic. I owe it to her that I got a 7 on my finals!!
Dr. Jebailey teaches in a way that helps you engage and connect with the content and properly understand it, while still leaving time for repeats, revision, discussions, or anything else you need. She knows her content well, and teaches in an easy-to-follow way before adding in the terms. I couldn’t have asked for a better teacher! She provided us all with the perfect blend between a supportive environment and independent problem-solving.
Working with Angela during my IB diploma completely changed the direction I took for my future. A bit dramatic, but it’s true. She guided me through higher level Biology that I thought I’d barely pass. In the end I received a 6 and fell in love with the subject. She helped me realize how capable I am and pushed me to challenge myself and follow my passion. Thanks to her I’ve changed my university degree to Human Biology and Behavior and am now pursuing a field that has captured my interest and ambition.
Miss Jebailey is simply amazing. She is a very focused teacher and very organized not only with the works she gives the students but also with her time. She divides her class into the different topics/ subtopics of the materials which helps the students stay on track. With that, whenever we had to give in any work or exams, we would have feedback the next day if not the same day. She is very attentive with each of her students and listens and opens space to their needs. She cares that everyone in her classroom is reaching their potential and it shows. She was truly an impactful teacher and I know that is true for many others as well.
Ms. Jebailey was my IB Biology SL teacher in 2017 and 2018. She had a way of breaking down complex notions to make them very simple and straightforward. She would often use relatable anecdotes or funny acronyms that not only made things easier to remember but also made learning more enjoyable. She also had a website that supported our in-class learning. Ms. Jebailey always went the extra mile to check up on students who were not achieving high marks and tried to find out whether personal factors were affecting their performance. She would understand each student in order to know what approach to take with them and in what way to motivate them. What makes Ms. Jebailey different from other teachers is her understanding that students' personal circumstances are intertwined with their academic performance, and that each student deserves an approach tailored to them.
I confess I was never the biggest fan of science, however, having Dr. Jebailey as my teacher has changed my perspective towards the subject. Being taught through a motivating and consistent teacher has allowed me to improve throughout the course. She has a great knowledge about the important areas IB expects students to focus on. Everyone in class had a high chance of succeeding the course. With her ability to narrow down complex topics into understandable and interesting information, Dr. Jebailey was always able to catch my attention during her classes. One factor that differentiated her from most teachers was the fact that she would always respect your time to comprehend any topic she would be explaining at the board. I remember she would always come to my seat after finishing a topic and ask whether I still had any questions or doubts about the information. Whenever I did, she would take her time to explain without any judgment to ensure I would understand. Although she would respect everyone's own pace, as an instructor she was always ahead and ready with her impressive time management. Besides being an inspiring teacher, Jebailey has also shown her students that she will always be there as a friend to hear us and support us at difficult (and also happy) times. She would emphasize how important and unique each individual is and respect it. Combining her empowering teachings with the IB course program has allowed several of us, including myself, to improve our overall performance due to the gain of confidence she has created in each one of us.
