"TSP is dedicated to helping students maximise their potentials and broadening their horizons through a robust curriculum. My overseas experiences, like international practicum and presenting at an international conference, interactions with students from various faculties, and insightful lectures by dedicated professors have prepared me to be more than just a classroom teacher. I look forward to using these experiences to inspire my students to engage in learning beyond the classroom."
