About RCF English

RCF English is a comprehensive educational platform created to bring together English-language learning, literature education, examination support, teacher resources, online classes and educational publications in one accessible place.

The platform serves school students, O/L and A/L learners, adult learners, English teachers, tuition teachers and parents. Particular attention is given to learners who require additional guidance, including those in rural and remote areas with limited access to dependable educational resources.

RCF English is guided by a simple principle: English should be explained clearly, practised systematically and applied confidently. Its resources therefore combine straightforward explanations, relevant models, guided activities, independent practice and opportunities for revision and self-correction.

RCF English was founded by Rohana Fernando, an experienced English teacher and lecturer who has devoted several decades to English-language learning and teaching. Throughout his career, he has sought to make English education clearer, more practical and more accessible to students, teachers and independent learners.

He is a graduate in English from the University of Peradeniya and holds a Master of Arts in Linguistics from the University of Kelaniya, together with a TESOL qualification from the University of Peradeniya. He is an Associate Member of the Colombo Association of Language Skills and Dramatic Art (CALSDA).

This gradual progression is particularly important in writing, where many learners struggle when they are asked to produce complete answers without sufficient preparation. RCF English therefore gives special attention to guided writing, answer development, model responses and self-correction.
