UBT - Ms Priya Latha Santhirasegaran

As an early childhood educator, I believe that every child is special and unique in their own way. A child is a thinking individual who thrives in an enriched environment. With my experience in guiding young children to enhance their skills, I also believe working hand in hand together with the parents to watch their children’s progress. Children will experience the joy of learning by preserving the excitement and curiosity in them through various interesting activities.
I love to explore together with the children where we can invent a masterpiece by putting different ideas together.
As a life-long learner, I have always been keen to upgrade myself to learn and try out new and fun filled activities to incorporate them in the learning environment.

UBT - Ms Nadirah Abd Rahim

I believe that each child is a unique, capable, creative, smart and independent individual who are entitled to learn and grow in a safe, respected and enriching environment. I will support and nurture these qualities and challenge the children in appropriate manners through the Reggio Emilia approach.
I love to interact with children and help them learn good morals and values in life.  I believe that we can LEARN and GROW together with the children.
Learning should be active, engaging, involved and fun! I am honored to share my experience and knowledge with the families and teachers of 215UBT.

UBT - Ms Zhang Nan Nan

孩子是一粒种子,需要我们用耐心来灌溉;需要我们给予阳光般的笑容去迎对每一个“为什么?”;当嫩芽萌发,我们用知识来田培,我们用爱来播种,希望孩子们能在阳光蓝天下茁壮健康的成长。

Greatness is an inherently dynamic process, not an end point. I reflect the important rule of educating where work is never done. In other words, even after a culture is built, educators are collaborating and making calculated risks, it is necessary for us to ensure that we are consistently checking in, evaluating and acquiring. This will lead to flexibility in adapting the current means on how children may learn better given the great deal of learners of the 21st Century. When educators embrace such values as a lifelong process, children will equally savour the experiences of endless learning. This will heighten their capacities towards solving problems as acquisitions from previous incidences naturally equip them with ways to resolve subsequent and similar situations, simultaneously boosting their potential, resilience and competencies. As Albert Einstein once said, “Example is not another way to teach, it is the only way to teach”. Children are pure where any prior knowledge or skills are either imitated or copied from adults in their life. Thus, the responsibility of teaching by example is equitably significant.

UBT - Ms Jiang Xin

我相信每一个孩子都是非常有能力的:
他们的活动充沛无限,
他们的想象天马行空,
他们的爱天真浪漫,
他们的笑容无比灿烂,
他们有一百种的语言。

I believe that exploring and discovering through play is the child’s innate nature.
I understand the value of offering children hands-on learning that enables them to ponder, express curiosity and accumulate a wealth of life experiences.
I love to be a co-partner and co-researcher alongside the children in their learning. As I build a deeper understanding of each child’s interests and strengths through observation, I can then support in expanding their horizons.

UBT - Ms Yeo Si Qi

Every child is an unique individual with the right to being treated with
respect, love and commitment. It is my role to nurture the pebbles of wonder and foster positive social-emotional development; and my goal to ignite the love for learning in a reassuring and inviting environment.
I believe in working hand-in-hand with parents and the community to promote curiosity and kindness, as well as instil resilience and adaptability to empower children with the heart and skills to be lifelong superheroes to better this world we live in.

UBT - Ms Charissa Tan

Children deserve to have their thoughts, feelings and opinions respected and should always be given a safe space to express them so the art of communication in them is cultivated and strengthened with practice and guidance. With an environment that is crafted for a variety of learning styles to ensure that all are given equal opportunities to flourish, my vision for the children is not only for them to be guided to grow into independent, capable and confident learners but also compassionate learners as well.
As we work hand-in-hand with families to shape children’s thought processes and perspectives, we are gradually building them up for success in the future; one where they recognize that success is not defined by their mistakes or failures, but by the resilience and courage that springs forth from embracing those failures.

UBT - Ms Ding Qi

我认为每位幼儿都是独一无二的,认真倾听 他们的心声,了解每一位幼儿的 性格特点,才能给予他们最好的帮助。在学习中我会提供孩子们所需要的材料, 让他们自由探索学习,培养他们的创造力和独立能力。
我会倾注热忱于我的工作,更会倾注满满爱心和耐心于我的孩子们,我会竭尽所能照顾和教育好每一位孩子,让家长放心,并努力为孩子们创造一个轻松愉快的学习环境。

UBT - Ms Yip Jin Wen Janelle

I strongly believe that every child has their strengths and weaknesses and as a teacher, my role is to enhance the children’s strength as well as to work on their weaknesses. I believe that children learn best in topics which they are interested in and as such, opportunities for children to explore, discover, create and even imagine should be provided for them. Aside from education, I also believe that it is important for children to have human values such as respect, compassion, integrity and empathy towards others.

UBT - Ms Jasmine Liu

Every child is like a butterfly in the wind, some can fly higher than
others,
But one flies the best it can.
Why compare one against the other?
Each one is different 
Each one is special
Each one is beautiful

UBT - Ms Lu Shen

爱是相互的,在我以往的工作中我感受到了这一点。我对孩子的爱, 可以变成家长对我的信任,因为我和家长都把爱放在了孩子的身上。
我会用欣赏的目光去注视身边的孩子。平等交往;更要去体察和探明 幼儿的兴趣与需要,并及时提供支持和帮助。我还会以不同的角度去欣赏, 去挖掘他们身上微小的闪光点。
我会加倍努力教育好每一个孩子,不辜负家长对我的信任。当一名幼儿教师,我感到无比自豪!

UBT - Ms Amelia Yap

I believe every child is unique and they learn at different paces using different methods. Our role as teachers is to observe, listen and question in order to further extend children’s thinking and to deepen their understanding of the world. I view the classroom as a third teacher and a safe environment for children to voice out their thoughts, ideas and opinions. To me, teaching a journey where learning takes place not only for the children but also for the teachers and the community.

UBT - Ms Bai Ying

每个幼儿都是特别的,每个幼儿都需要得到不一样的对待。
我希望老师的工作是,能够发现每个孩子特别的地方,根据孩子的特点引导孩子学习、进步;陪伴孩子成长;帮助孩子提高自我管理的能力。从而使孩子展现自信的一面。
希望孩子们能够成为乐观向上,服务社会的人。

UBT - Ms Yeong Pei Jie

I strongly believe that children learn through play as play offers young children the opportunity to put their ideas into action. I also believe in the importance of a carefully prepared learning environment that invites young children to explore and learn through play. Furthermore, the quality of family relationships also plays a vital role in children’s learning and development. Positive relationships between home and school support children as they settle into school. I am looking forward to the academic year ahead as we develop a strong class community, make meaningful connections and delve into collaborative learning experiences together.

UBT - Ms Zeng Li

马拉古兹《其实有一百种》的诗中提到:“孩子有一百种语言、一百双手、一百个想法……”在我的教育理念中,我认为幼儿是有能力的,独立的,是通过建构而习得新知识的,作为教育者的我们要成为孩子们探索活动中的支持者、合作者、引导者和记录者,提供给幼儿丰富的材料和环境,让他们自由尽情地表达和创新。

UBT - Ms Leow Kaiwen

“Every child deserves a champion; an adult who will never give up on them, who understands the power of connection and insists they become the best they can possibly be.”
I view children as competent, curious and resilient individuals. I believe that they develop an understanding of their world through social interactions and in-depth exploration of materials in the environment. Our role as adults is to act as a facilitator of their interests; to observe, listen and question. I look forward to working hand in hand with parents on their learning journey together; to be the champions they need in their life.

UBT - Ms Wang Tong

兴趣是最好的老师,让孩子们在快乐中学习,学有所爱,学有所得。孔子曰:“知之者不如好之者,好之者不如乐之者”。我会用兴趣给孩子们创设一个欢乐的环境。在华文识字、写字、汉语拼音教学上有丰富的教学经验,可较好的辅助幼小衔接过渡阶段。

UBT - Ms Louanne Sungaimin

“If children feel safe, they can take risks, ask questions, make mistakes, learn to trust, share their feelings, and grow.” – Alfie Kohn
This motto is one that I firmly stand by and is the basis for my philosophy. I believe that children’s learning is driven by their own imagination and curiosity, and I aim to create a safe environment where children feel confident in expressing and exploring their interests. Building a strong rapport with the children is therefore key in achieving this, as it is through positive interactions and collaboration with children that enhances their learning experience. I enjoy incorporating art activities into my lessons, as it provides a way for children to express their thoughts and feelings through a variety of mediums.
As parents are a child’s first teachers, I also strongly believe in working closely with families in order to further my understanding of each child’s unique needs, thus maximising the child’s learning experience both in school and at home.

UBT - Ms Li LiYing

我认为每个幼儿都是独立的个体,他们是有能力的。
我认为认识和尊重每个幼儿的潜力和惟一性、了解每个幼儿特有的特质,是教师极为重要的责任。
我认为让幼儿学会分享、合作以及轮流的态度,是日常教育工作的目标。
我愿意倾听幼儿的声音,与幼儿一起学习、共同进步。
我愿意倾听家长们的声音,做到有效的家园共育。
我希望幼儿能够得到更好的教育,拥有一个有价值的学前阶段!

UBT - Ms Amanda Lee

“Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart  from it.” – Proverbs 22:6
As a teacher preparing children for the 21st century, I believe that it isn’t sufficient to teach the academic skills. Many people could do that! I strongly believe that in order to excel in today’s society, our young children need to have the soft skills to be adaptive regardless of the situation and they ought to be curious learners who are individuals that are able to learn. This is also why, as a teacher, I try my utmost best to make learning meaningful through play as learning takes place when interest in present. Wouldn’t you agree?

UBT - Ms Cindy Cao Xingting

我的信念:孩子有一百种表达自己的语言。
我的理念:教师作为幼儿学习的支持者,在有规则的环境下为幼儿创造自由探索的条件,帮助幼儿进行知识建构,鼓励幼儿主动思考,激发幼儿学习华语的兴趣。
我的态度:尊重、理解、关爱每一位孩子。

UBT - Ms Jasmine Dave Kaur

The ultimate responsibility of a teacher is to direct the child to reach his/her fullest potential intellectually and emotionally. I believe that learning begins from birth and as educators; it is our responsibility to support that growth. The classroom setting should be rich and stimulating and a good parent-teacher relationship will benefit the education of the children. I personally believe that the wider the range of possibilities we offer children, the more intense will be their motivations and the richer their experiences.

UBT - Ms He Hua

世界上没有两片相同的叶子,就像每个孩子都潜藏着独一无二的天赋,他的唯一性不只表现在深深刻进的DNA基因密码中,更表现在看待世界的眼光和思考问题的方式上。我拒绝用标配的方法去教育每一个孩子,因为他们尚未平庸,未来无限。
怀着一颗童心,去聆听孩子的一百种语言;手捧一颗爱心,鼓励和赞赏他们。感恩可以和孩子们相遇,让我们一起成长。

“Fill the children with joy, laughter and happiness and they will brighten up our lives.”
I believe that children are our future, and every one of them is capable and has the potential to make a difference in the world we live in. If we teach them the importance of values such as happiness and joy, they will spread it around and in return, making our world a better place to live in.

I believe in the power of curiosity, interest and self-expression in fuelling our desire to learn. The Reggio Emilio approach embraced by EtonHouse
encompasses that belief and harnesses the child to grow holistically in their own potential. I hope each child will get to explore and experience the beauty of the world around us and that I can nurture their creative minds to be confident in the visual arts.

荀子曾提出“乐行而志清,礼修而行;耳目聪明,莫善相乐”。从古至今,音乐艺术教育是儿童教育和发展过程中不可缺少的重要组成部分。将音乐表演、艺术欣赏、儿童戏剧表演、舞蹈相结合,幼儿们能够全方位的体验到音乐表演艺术的独特魅力,鼓励幼儿们创造性的表现音乐艺术表演、更有自信的表达对音乐表演艺术的理解,并培养幼儿们终身热爱音乐表演艺术,体会乐趣所在。
