He served as the head of three different schools till June 1995 when he was summoned by the Education Ministry to take up the task of coordinating and leading English section of the Curriculum and Professional Support Service Division in the Ministry. It was during that time, in mid-nineties when he identified reading as a niche area for the Education Ministry to work on in order to enhance academic competence of students across the country. Consequently, Supplementary Reading Programme, his own brain-child was conceived and introduced, which is thriving to this day. His keen interest in helping students\u2019 readings skills and literature encouraged him to pursue masters in Library and Information Studies from Dalhousie University in Canada. Kinzang\u2019s strong belief in access to literature as the key to reading development encouraged him to pioneer in automating the libraries in the constituent colleges under the Royal University of Bhutan. He has provided his know-how in the automation of Sherubtse\u2019 College\u2019s library, and did a detailed planning of the existing PCE\u2019s library automation.

Today, Kinzang is experimenting with contemplation, mindful meditation, Buddhist inspired pedagogies in managing classrooms, motivating students.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pce.edu.bt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Kinzang-Lhendup-CV.pdf\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3095\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pce.edu.bt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/button_read-more.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"109\" height=\"29\" \/><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">Email:\u00a0 \u00a0<span style=\"color: #000080;\">kinzanglhendup.pce@rub.edu.bt<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Professional biography Kinzang Lhendup joined teaching in 1991 after completing his B.Ed from the erstwhile National Institute of Education, Samtse, Bhutan.
