My Summary
About Me
My name is Ishani Siriwardena but I have been more commonly known in the classroom as Ms Siri. After four years of teaching in schools in Lincolnshire, I had a revelation! My favourite moments in the classroom have always been those quiet conversations with individual students during and after classes that often lead to major learning breakthroughs. And that's when I realised that, with only a small change, I could dedicate my career to being in this role.
My Experience
I qualified as a teacher with Bishop Grosseteste University College, Lincoln in 2011. My training schools included Christ Hospital, Banovallum and De Aston. I taught English and Media at Sir William Robertson School for three years and then spent a year at North Kesteven teaching English and Communication & Culture with added responsibility in developing Key Stage 3 to support the requirements of the new national curriculum and GCSEs. I have also privately tutored and mentored special needs students under the 'son-rise' programme and taught English as a foreign language to adults and students in India and Romania. I have tutored for five years.
My Qualifications
I have 12 GCSEs at A grade or higher, A2-Levels in Music, History, Art and English Literature (B, A, A, A respectively) and a masters level degree in English at Pembroke University College, Cambridge. Finally, I completed my PGCE successfully at Bishop Grosseteste University, Lincoln. While my academic track record speaks for itself in terms of achievement, I have not always found learning easy and am skilled in supporting learners of all age and abilities.
My Availability
I have plenty of slots available.
