Hi, my name is Jerlyn!
I am a Special Educator at Sethu. Joining the Sethu ‘family’ means I am part of a multidisciplinary team that focuses on the diverse needs of a child and their family. Being a part of this amazing team of professionals gives me immense joy.
In my free time, I like doing art and craft, macrame is something I am currently interested in learning more about. I love music and dancing helps me to relax and destress.
I am part of the Inclusive Education team and work alongside Anusha, Shubhra, and Shahan. As a team, we provide all children that come to us with an equal opportunity to education and learning irrespective of their gender, religion or any challenge they may have. It is wonderful to get immersed in achieving this. A goal for us is to create a society where all children are accepted and respected by focusing on their strengths to better their weaknesses.
My role as a Special Educator is to assess and provide the right intervention for the children who come to us. Along with interacting with the kids, my role is to guide the parents on how to teach various skills taught at Sethu at home. I am also a part of Tarang which is an Inclusive Education programme at Sethu.
Being a part of even the small success in a child’s life gives me great joy and keeps me motivated, even though there may be times when things don’t go as planned. Patience, understanding, and love are something that I am learning more about every day since joining the team.
