Introduction to My Internship


 " Every day is  a good day when there is something to learn, care for and celebrate"
- Amit Ray 



From the 5th of January 2024 till the 8th of February 2024, I was given the privilege to embark on an unforgettable journey, pursuing my passion at Sussex College Wennappuwa. There, I completed 45 hours of teaching sessions for students in Grades 4, 7, 8, and 9.

They supplied me with invaluable knowledge, direction, and mentorship throughout and offered help whenever necessary.

I gained useful classroom skills from this experience, but it also gave me a greater grasp of the science and art of teaching. As I think, education is a strong instrument that can open up countless opportunities for people, I try to establish a safe environment where kids feel empowered and appreciated. This encourages cooperation and teamwork, which helps to improve their learning experiences in a lighthearted and enjoyable way. Chaos inevitably follows freedom, but as a teacher, I think that everything is achievable with the correct methods.
