A highly motivated, intuitive and result focused individual with 35 years of successful experience in diversified environments in the past 22 years as an educator working in US. I am looking to put in acquired education expertise at junior or secondary level Science (Preferably Chemistry) classroom. I have gained experience in teaching inclusion and special education settings teaching physical, earth, space, biology, life and environmental sciences. I am excited to start clubs or any school friendly science projects with students and open to teach any branch of science.

To whom it may concern

I am a highly motivated result focused individual with 35 years of successful education career in very different environments. Most of my career, I tried to focus on ways that I can motivate my students to be better & create interests in subject matter. To achieve these goals sometimes I tried to find my own unique ways. I started my career as an English teacher (ESL) in Sri Lanka and then had an opportunity to teach as a Chemistry teacher in a High School in Colombo, Sri Lanka. In the United States I did teach Montessori, preschool and Middle school students for sometimes. Currently I am teaching in a therapeutic school in Mohegan Lake, NY. Before that I taught in, one other therapeutic school, an IB boarding school (mostly international) with High School students, where I taught as an IB/IGCSE Chemistry teacher, in EF, Thornwood, New York. I am hoping to broaden my horizons to have a better experience with an interesting and different set up, as well as, to find a better fit for me to further my career. I like to lead students and to participate in constructive programs. I already have achieved this in my life before, working with the Boys & Girls Clubs of America, in Mt Kisco and all schools I worked so far. If I find the right school I will be able to do it again and that will give me a chance to achieve the goal in my life which is to be a great Science Teacher. Hopefully in return many more students also will benefit from my teaching methods and make their dreams come true. Also I believe in schools that students can get familiar with the staff and staff that can relate to all students they touch. In my belief that will give students an opportunity to get closer to teachers. This eventually can benefit both teacher & the student. In addition, I have artistic & computer skills that will be useful for class & school projects. I also have attached my resume for your review. I would give names of referees if you would like to consider. Thank you for considering my application. I would appreciate the opportunity to interview and look forward to hearing from you in the near future.
