Arjola Myftiu

Teacher of Biology and Chemistry at Irfan Ngjeqari Non-Public Gymnasium. She graduated from the Faculty of Natural Sciences in Biology-Chemistry, Tirana, in 2008. That training grounds her daily work connecting scientific theory with classroom practice.

She has been on the school staff since 2008, with a steady contribution to Chemistry teaching. Across 16 years in education she has built a clear approach: students should understand the “why” behind concepts, not only memorise formulas. Lessons emphasise scientific accuracy, steady work habits, and respect for the learning process.

A major part of her work is olympiad preparation. She has helped prepare students who have won dozens of local olympiads. That work needs extra hours, deeper materials, and individual pacing. She has also made a particular contribution to Matura students aiming for Medicine and related fields, helping them build strong foundations in the natural sciences before the State Matura.

Together with colleagues, she is part of the teaching staff that contributed to 8 gold medals in recent years, three of them in the most recent school year noted in the source material. That result reflects the school’s collective work and ongoing commitment to students who aim for excellence.

For families, her profile is that of a teacher who knows the demands of upper-secondary natural sciences well: disciplined study, courage to ask questions, and clarity of explanation. Her aim each year remains the same: that every student leaves the lesson more confident in what they know and one step closer to the academic goals they have set.
