A Chemistry teacher from Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan (SMK) Ave Maria Convent, V. Komathy has been awarded the Global Teacher Award 2021 - an annual awards event organised by AKS Education.

The 38-year-old, who has been serving for 14 years, received international recognition at a virtual ceremony via the official Facebook page and YouTube channel of the AKS Education Awards.

She was chosen as the winner out of 321 candidates from Malaysia and about 26,000 entries from other countries.

Komathy, who holds a master’s degree in chemistry education from Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris (UPSI) and is currently pursuing a doctorate in the same field at UPSI, has produced several innovative products, that have been recognised internationally, in order to pique students’ interest in chemistry.

We at RAAGA want to congratulate V. Komathy on her amazing achievement and best of luck for her future endeavours.
