I understand that starting off by proclaiming an immense love for what you do is uber cliche, but I can't help it - I just love my profession.

Having been in the Communications industry before, I rose up the ranks to Senior Journalist for Singapore's LaborFront, only to learn that Education was where my heart is.

Now, I have fully dedicated myself to it, mastering the art form of pedagogy for children, students, and working adults alike, hoping to empower people with English and as well as explore its nuance, than just merely teaching it.

Named as one of my company's top four performers internationally, I feel it is a testament to my passion and my prowess as a teacher! Building relationships with my students is of the utmost priority as well, so that means I am always there for homework or edits for that email regardless of class time.

I specialize in the following:
- School Education
- Inference building
- IELTS / SATs / ACT
- Business English / Editing
- Resume coaching
- Story-telling and learning

Do reach out and let us have a chat on how I can best help out!
