Well-experienced Mathematics / Physics teacher as an accomplished educator who cares deeply about student success. I have been teaching Physics and Mathematics for the past 35 years in Sri Lanka as well as overseas at a few government and private schools; also I have served as a visiting lecturer at a few Universities in Sri Lanka.
I am a dedicated and strong results oriented teacher with excellent teaching methods with interactive and effective teaching materials and creative lesson plans. As a teacher, my main goal is to motivate and inspire students to do their best and expand their personal boundaries. I encourage students to construct their own learning in an environment that stimulates and supports students to realise their full potential. My teaching experience has enabled me to work with students from diverse backgrounds with challenges.
I would like to state that I am well equipped with physical classroom teaching as well as virtual and online teaching with modern teaching equipment, devices and software, writing panel (as whiteboard), Pdf tutorials and PowerPoint presentations for each lesson.
“Telling is not teaching, and listening is not learning”. I strongly believe that with my educational & professional qualifications and long experience in various fields of education sector, I can make a credible and excellent contribution to you.
