About Me
italki teacher since Jan 29, 2025InterestsPets & AnimalsTravelFoodEnvironment & NatureMedical & Healthcare
I'm a Sri Lankan/US citizen living in California. After coming to the USA, I decided to pursue a career in the medical field. I attended university and obtained my BSc in Respiratory Care. Currently, I am working as a Respiratory Care Practitioner and living with my loving husband who is my high school sweetheart. We have 3 grown children, all 3 of them have graduated from prestigious universities; 2 of them are married and have blessed us with 2 grand babies who are also learning the Sinhala language. I started learning Spanish recently, and understood the difficulties of learning a new language and have learned tricks on how to make a language stick and the nuances of a language.Me as a Teacher
I am from the USA and before I migrated here, I had been teaching English for 16 years as a trained teacher of English in Sri Lanka. I taught in Sri Lankan government schools from grade one to thirteen and have received awards for teaching English. Also, I used to teach English Medium Mathematics from grade six to eleven. In the USA, I worked in a community college as an adjunct professor as well as a clinical instructor of Respiratory Therapy. I love to teach because teaching makes me happy and alive and the satisfaction you receive when I see the progress of my students is priceless.My lessons & teaching style
Helping you to exchange simple ideas when you get out and on a street in Sri Lanka is my main focus but my lessons and teaching style will be different according to your needs. Whether you are a beginner, or has some knowledge, I will adapt my communication style to suit your level.
In our 1st meeting, I will create a customized learning plan to suit your goals. We can focus on the subjects you prefer. No pressure, but I will use tests and quizzes accordingly. If you like I can assign you some homework as well.
My class is a stress free, fun filled moment that you can get to know about beautiful, affordable Sri Lanka as well as the life in USA. Come join with me to learn Sinhala.My teaching material

I have had a couple of lessons with Taru already. All the lessons were very nice, I felt comfortable and she motivated me to improve. I can only recommend lessons with Taru!

I am having a wonderful time learning Sinhala from Taru. She creates a comfortable learning environment and is always ready to answer my questions. She is also very patient, friendly, and encouraging. I highly recommend her as a teacher!
