Experience
I am a graduate from the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences (National University of Singapore) with a Bachelor of Arts with Honours (2nd Class Upper) degree in History. I also hold a Post-Graduate Diploma in Education (Specialisation in teaching at Secondary School Level) with Credit in History and English Language. I worked as a journalist with Singapore Press Holdings. I am currently a full-time English Language and General Paper teacher in an independent school. I am the subject head of English Language and also the General Paper teacher of the school.
My experience as a teacher provided me the opportunity to assume all the responsibilities of a form-teacher, CCA-teacher, level-subject coordinator and committee member (National Education and ICT). My teaching experience includes handling students of diverse learning abilities. I have also worked successfully with students with special needs. Furthermore, with a strong background in the English Language, I hope to take up the challenge this assignment offers.
As a journalist with The New Paper, I served as an education and community affairs reporter. I wrote stories related to community issues, education, crime, accidents and disasters. I specialised in stories that concern the community and gathered facts and information through research and interviews, and presented my articles in a fashion that attracts and educates my readers. I also have experience in working with personnel from the corporate communications department, members of the public, ministers and professionals
