Vicky Heng

I am an experienced both preschool and primary Mandarin teacher with nine years of experience from Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur.

Two years ago, I started a new role as an early years bilingual teacher, and it has been an exciting and fulfilling experience for me. I love seeing children having fun learning both English and Chinese language, and I believe that it is an effective program to start for children at an early age.

I hold a Master's degree in Teaching and Learning, which I completed with top honors. I have always had a passion for working with children, which is why I chose to pursue a career as a teacher. I take great pride in my work and am dedicated to creating a positive and engaging learning environment for my students.

In addition to my teaching experience, I am also a Learning Innovation coach who is passionate about integrating technology into the classroom. I was awarded Apple Distinguished Educator in 2019, which reflects my commitment to innovative and effective teaching practices.

Outside of work, I enjoy playing the piano, watching movies, hanging out with my friends and family, and playing with my nieces. These activities help me maintain a healthy work-life balance and keep me motivated to do my best work.
