Profile

Shobana Nair

I commenced my teaching career at the Dyslexia Association of Singapore (DAS) in 2007. I attained both my Diploma in Professional Teaching for Trainers and Teachers from Cambridge University, United Kingdom and my Diploma in Dyslexia Studies in 2010. As a Senior Educational Therapist in the DAS, I have had a variety of portfolios to carry, namely intervention for students with dyslexia and specific learning differences and outreach projects to schools in order to raise the awareness of dyslexia. In 2011, I branched out to gain more experience in teaching children with special needs and other learning differences other than dyslexia. I have had experience tutoring children who have Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD), Autism and even those with Down Syndrome. I tutor students who have learning dificulties in the areas of English Language and Maths. I am a patient and passionate educator who takes a keen interest in ensuring ever student is engaged in the learning process and create many activities to interest my students. My cheerful and bubbly demeanour itself sets the tone for the students to be almost instantly eager to learn with me.
