Hello, I'm

Jayanth Nadheri

Educator & Education Researcher

I am an educator and researcher with experience in school classrooms and education research contexts. With a background in physics and educational technology, I focus on how thoughtful pedagogy and digital tools can meaningfully improve learning.

I am motivated to work in academic and school-based settings to strengthen teaching practice and build inclusive, evidence-informed learning environments. My current work also explores creative digital resources—including multimedia and educational memes—to support student understanding and engagement.
