Organized by the Business World International Organization, the award ceremony was recently held at the Taj Samudra Hotel in Colombo.
In addition, she was also honored by the All Island Professional Lecturers Association (APLA) during its 10th biannual conference.
President Ranil Wickremesinghe, who graced the conference, presented the award, recognizing her significant service towards improving education in Sri Lanka.
Dr. Fernando is recognized as the top online tutor for the Grade Five Scholarship Examination. Her innovative teaching approach has revolutionized how students prepare for this crucial exam.
As the sole teacher, she has successfully guided nearly 100,000 students through her online classes, providing them with the tools and confidence to excel.
Her classes, structured around five main courses, are designed to help students achieve scores exceeding 190 marks in the Scholarship Examination.
The online format offers numerous benefits, including the convenience of not having to travel, the ability to access recordings of previous sessions, and the opportunity for parents to monitor their children's progress.
She has a strong presence on social media platforms like Facebook and YouTube, which has further expanded her reach and influence.
Despite the online nature of her classes, she ensures personalized attention for each student, with special focus on those needing additional guidance.
A unique feature of Dr. Fernando's academy is the grand graduation ceremony held in Colombo after every examination.
This celebration, unmatched by any other tuition service, underscores the academy's commitment to not only academic excellence but also the holistic development of its students.
