    Commitment / Other Details
    I am a full-time private tutor, mainly teaching Primary school children from low-income families under the CDAC Tuition Programme. You could say that I am the "Champion of the underdog". I am married to a Vietnamese national and we have a two-year old child, a boy. We currently live at Redhill. Quote: There are only two lasting bequests we can give to our children. One is money and the other is wings. While we are busy fitting our children out with new and better wings through 21st century competencies and a more rounded education, we must not forget to help them develop their moral compass and their national identity. In times of uncertainty and crises, rootedness and resilience are what will carry us through. In pursuing holistic education in the 21st century, the roles of teachers will shift. From their primary role as a dispenser of information, teachers are more likely to become conductors of learning symphonies, helping students turn information into knowledge, knowledge into wisdom, and wisdom into contributions for a better world."
