MEET THE TEAM BEHIND EXPECTATIONS EDUCATION
Principal Educational
Consultant/CEO
As a graduate from Sri Lanka and a postgraduate degree holder from New Zealand, my journey in education has been both diverse and enriching. I began my career as a teacher in Sri Lanka and later worked as an Accounting Lecturer in the Maldives and Qatar. My experience at Centre for Higher Secondary Education (Maldives) and Stafford Sri Lankan School (Qatar) deepened my passion for education and international student mobility.
Inspired by my years as an educator, I established Expectations Education to support Sri Lankan students in achieving their study abroad dreams. With ever-evolving immigration policies and increasing challenges in international education, we ensure a smooth, transparent, and free consultancy service in partnership with a Licensed Immigration Adviser in New Zealand.
At Expectations Education, we believe in integrity and excellence, offering free services to provide Sri Lankan students an unprecedented opportunity to achieve their academic and career goals.
