A Legacy of Excellence Since 1998

 

The Journey of KU Education: A Legacy of Excellence Since 1998

Education is not just about imparting knowledge; it is about evolving, adapting, and shaping the future. The story of KU Education is one of resilience, perseverance, and an unwavering commitment to learning. Established in 1998, KU Education has experienced an extraordinary journey, overcoming challenges and growing into a distinguished institution in Sri Lanka's education sector.

Humble Beginnings: Powering Up Education

KU Education began as Power Systems Professionals in 1998, with a vision to provide computer education and technological solutions. Recognizing the growing demand for IT skills, the institution expanded its focus to offer computer training programs. By 1999, KU Education achieved a significant milestone—it was officially recognized and registered as the first computer training center with the Council for Information Technology Sri Lanka (now known as the Vocational Training Authority, VTA). This recognition marked the beginning of a transformative era in IT education for the institution.

Adapting Through Adversity: Navigating the Civil War

The early 2000s were a period of significant upheaval in Sri Lanka due to the civil war. KU Education faced numerous challenges, including relocation and restructuring of its operations due to the ongoing conflict. Despite these hardships, the institution remained steadfast in its mission to provide quality education. However, the situation worsened in 2007, impacting its operations drastically.

During this turbulent period, the founder of KU Education, Mr. S. Manimaran, made a strategic move to Malaysia. This decision was not a retreat but a step toward further strengthening KU Education’s foundation.

International Exposure and Growth

Mr. Manimaran’s journey in Malaysia and Singapore allowed him to immerse himself in the international education industry. Working in higher education in these countries provided him with valuable insights into global educational standards, curriculum development, and innovative teaching methodologies. His experience abroad played a crucial role in reshaping KU Education’s vision, paving the way for modern, internationally aligned educational programs.

Unmasking the Underworld: The Dark Reality of IELTS Exam Cheating

 Buy your desired IELTS scores in Sri Lanka  

 The unauthorized disclosure of IELTS exam questions has become a lucrative enterprise in Asian countries, Sri Lanka included. With over 15 years of experience in preparing students for these exams, I have taken pride in my involvement in an educational program that prioritizes integrity in examination and certification processes. However, recent revelations from reputable sources have left me feeling deeply frustrated.

For over a year now, I've been hearing rumors about irregularities within the IELTS exam system. Initially, I dismissed them outright, but as time passed, I began hearing them from credible sources, which left me stunned.

The majority of English-speaking nations rely on IELTS band scores to evaluate the English proficiency of individuals seeking employment, education, or residency within their borders. Throughout the immigration process, IELTS scores have been regarded as indisputable evidence of English proficiency, often serving as the basis for various types of visa approvals.

Dear world, I urge you to diligently verify the authenticity of IELTS band scores, whether they are from standard IELTS tests or IELTS UKVI (the purportedly foolproof examination system).

How does the fraudulent practice occur? 

Questions and answers are provided early in the morning on the test date. Individuals are charged from 400,000 LKR to 1 million LKR for this service. With a standard memory capacity, one can easily memorize these answers and achieve minimum scores, ranging from 4.5 to 5.5, on both the Academic and General modules. I have personally interviewed six individuals who have succeeded in passing the IELTS in this manner. It is a widely known secret in countries such as Sri Lanka, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, etc. Stakeholders involved in immigration and emigration-related operations in the private sector are well aware of this practice.

The Pearson Test of English (PTE) - Available at KU Jaffna on demand (Limited)

The Pearson Test of English (PTE) is a widely recognized English language proficiency test that is designed to assess the language skills of non-native English speakers. It is known for its reliability, fairness, and accuracy in evaluating an individual's ability to use English in real-life academic and professional situations. The PTE exam comes in several types, each tailored to specific purposes, including PTE Academic, PTE General, and PTE Young Learners.

PTE Academic: PTE Academic is primarily intended for individuals seeking to study in English-speaking countries or for those applying for work visas. It is widely accepted by universities and colleges worldwide, as well as by governments for visa applications. This computer-based test evaluates a test-taker's proficiency in listening, reading, speaking, and writing in an academic context.

PTE General: PTE General is designed for general English language proficiency assessment and is often used for personal and professional purposes. It assesses practical skills in listening, speaking, reading, and writing, making it suitable for individuals seeking to improve their overall English language competency.

PTE Young Learners: This variant of the PTE is tailored for younger test-takers to assess their English language skills at various developmental stages. It is designed to help children and young learners gain confidence and competence in English for academic and practical applications.

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing to address a situation concerning an international flight that I was unable to catch, owing to circumstances beyond my control.

Over the past two weeks, I have been engaged in business travel and have been a speaker at international conferences. Unfortunately, yesterday afternoon, I encountered a substantial delay of over three hours upon my arrival at Tokyo Airport. This delay was a result of technical difficulties experienced by one of your company's aircraft. Consequently, I missed my connecting flight from Tokyo to Madrid, which, regrettably, led to my inability to participate in the conference.

How long it will take to score 6.5 and above in IELTS exam for an absolute beginner ?

The time it takes for a person to learn English and score 6-6.5 on the IELTS Academic exam will depend on a variety of factors, including their current level of English proficiency, their study habits, and the amount of time they are able to dedicate to learning English.

For someone starting from scratch, it could take anywhere from 6 months to 2 years of consistent study to reach a level of proficiency that would allow them to score 6.5 on the IELTS Academic exam. However, if someone already has a basic understanding of English and is able to dedicate several hours a day to study, they may be able to achieve this score in a shorter period of time.

It is observed that most of the IELTS test takers write their essays using a lot of linking words like, "Firstly", "Secondly".....etc. particularly they tend to start each paragraph with a phrase that shows a sequence. It is not much expected in essay writing. 

The following essay is an example where these sequencing words are not used at the beginning of the paragraphs. 

Pets and their role in humans' mental health 

The relationship between pet animals and mental health is a complex and multifaceted one. Studies have shown that owning a pet can have a positive impact on mental health and wellbeing, offering a range of benefits such as companionship, purpose, routine, and emotional support.

 One of the most significant benefits of owning a pet is the sense of companionship and social support they provide. For people who live alone or have limited social connections, pets can offer a sense of companionship and help to ease feelings of loneliness. In addition, pets have been found to provide a sense of purpose and routine, which can be especially beneficial for people with mental health conditions such as depression and anxiety.

IELTS கற்க ஆரம்பிக்கும் முன் - சில எச்சரிககைக் குறிப்புக்கள்!!!

நாட்டின் தற்போதுள்ள சூழ்நிலையில் வெளிநாட்டிற்கு செல்ல முயல்வோரின் எண்ணிக்கை சடுதியாக அதிகரித்திருப்பதைத் தொடர்ந்து IELTS எனும் இந்தப் பரீட்சைக் கற்பித்தல்-சான்றிதழ் வழங்கல் என்ற வகையில் அப்பாவி மாணவர்கள் பெருந்தொகையில் ஏமாற்றப்பட்டு வருகிறார்கள். பேற்றோர்கள்/மாணவர்கள் பின்வரும் அறிந்து செயற்படல் மிகவும் முக்கிமானதாகும்.

1) பெற்றோர் இந்தப் பாடநெறியைக் கற்பிக்கும் ஆசிரியருடன் நேரடியாக தமது பிள்ளையையையும் கலந்து கொள்ள வைத்து உரையாடி பின்வரும் தகவல்களை அறிந்துகொள்ளவும்.

2) ஆசிரியர் இந்தத்துறையில் எவ்வளவு காலம் அனுபவமுள்ளவர் ? (அண்மையில் படித்து முடித்த அனுபவமற்றவர்களிடம் கற்று உங்கள் பணத்தையும் நேரரத்தையும் வீணடிக்காதீர்)

Looking for Young Entrepreneurs in Sri Lanka.

 The top priority is  creating and supporting new entrepreneurs 

"Effective Teaching Techniques" workshop@Osmania College, Jaffna. 

Conducted by Mr.S.Manimaran

The development of the business sector, particularly nurturing the entrepreneurial mindset among youth is the best way of uplifting the country.  I used to be a small entrepreneur during my university time (Undergraduate) and realized how it had developed my confidence and gave me enough training to standing alone as a person in society. [The cruel face of the civil war had destroyed many of our dreams, and had been putting barriers for every movement in the business.] Past is past.

Now the country is not ready for civil war but fighting a war against hunger.[2020-2022..]

There are numerous business opportunities to take within the country and take beyond the borders. The problem is the mindset of our youth. Blame on our education system. Which has been creating paper-based graduates over decades. Youth seem to have lost their inner – curiosity, hunger for invention, thirsty for knowledge.. all, because of a government job-guaranteed education system. Just become a graduate of any subject, government guarantees a job within a few years from graduation. Most of the crowd dwells in the dream of a government job and doing nothing until then. 

Another major portion of the youth population is running behind fake agencies, low quality private educational qualifications to move to a foreign country expecting a huge wealth generation. A small population goes for some middle east countries to make an earning almost they can make within Sri Lanka.

Creating entrepreneurs, educating them, supporting them is a part of the life mission.

Through our institution (KU Education) we have been offering many free educational programs to induce the hidden talents of youth and help them to identify their capabilities which can be monetized later in their life.

We have been using the following types of a free short courses as a tool to keep in touch with youth and study them.

• Web designing
• Digital Photography
• Digital Videography
• Digital Media Production
• S.E.O and Web marketing
• Communicative English -Level 1,2,3
• Graphic designing
• And much more free courses1
