Reshma Fernandez
Supervisor - KG1
Reshma Fernandez joined GEMS Modern Academy as a Kindergarten Teacher in April 2001. Now in her 25th year at GMA, she has worked in the capacity of a Teacher, Kindergarten Activities for Curriculum Enrichment (KACE) Coordinator, Academic Coordinator, and Kindergarten Supervisor.
In 2009, she spearheaded the planning, implementation, and execution of an innovative after-school enrichment programme for Kindergarten children. Appointed Academic Coordinator in 2011, she motivated her team of teachers to work collaboratively, supporting one another to achieve positive learning outcomes.
A motivated educator, Reshma was appointed Kindergarten 1 Supervisor in April 2012. Her understanding of child development is born out of observation of children’s responses rather than textbooks. Her personal experiences with children have led her to realize that learning does not take place simply by being taught. She believes that children’s learning outcomes are spontaneous, given a rich sensory environment where they are free to explore activity and express themselves in many different ways.
