Summary

While I continue my schooling, I'm looking for work possibilities to supplement my education and expand my knowledge base. I am a committed early childhood educator with three years of experience providing preschoolers and primary school students in Sri Lanka with a loving and stimulating learning environment. I am now enrolled in a Certificate 3 programme in early childhood education. Creating age-appropriate curricula and using innovative teaching strategies to foster cognitive, social, and emotional development are passions of mine.
