Sreelakshmi N.

I teach Spoken English and have been doing so for the past 6 years. My teaching journey combines language training with elements of storytelling, creativity, and child-centered learning. I believe that English, when taught in a supportive and interactive environment, can help students gain not just fluency but also confidence in expression.

I hold a Master’s degree in Journalism and Mass Communication, which has helped shape my communication and presentation skills. I am also a CELTA-certified English trainer, and I have completed a Diploma in the Montessori Teaching Method. These qualifications allow me to combine structure with flexibility in my sessions—something that is especially important for students who are at different levels of fluency.

For the past 5–6 years, I have been running Chaityavrikshaa Montessori Center in Bangalore. Here, I have trained aspiring teachers using hands-on, practical methods based on the Montessori philosophy. This experience has deeply influenced my Spoken English sessions as well. My focus is always on interactive, meaningful learning instead of rote memorization or grammar drills alone.

In addition to education, I am also a filmmaker and screenwriter. I conduct workshops on storytelling and visual narratives, blending my background in journalism with creative expression. These experiences have made my classes more engaging, where students not only learn the language but also explore how to communicate ideas powerfully.

My films have won awards at various Children’s Film Festivals, both in India and abroad, including recognitions in Himachal Pradesh and Italy. This exposure to global storytelling techniques helps me incorporate creativity and cultural awareness into my English training sessions.

I like to conduct my classes online, using PPTs, videos, and creative activities. I make sure to provide structured notes and follow an interactive approach. Whether it’s improving fluency, pronunciation, vocabulary, or presentation skills, I aim to make each session purposeful and enjoyable for my students.
