DirectressI started as a secretary in the 1980s and moved on to be a Human Resources Manager in a foreign bank in the last 10 years.  After the birth of my daughter, I decided to be trained as an early childhood teacher so as to be able to spend more quality time with her.  I completed my teaching practice at The Little House Montessori.  The convivial environment has given me the motivation to stay and grow as a Montessori early childhood teacher.  Of course, the children are the greatest motivation as they present me daily with challenges and learning experiences.

Head DirectressI have been at teaching in a Montessori setting for the past 20 years.  Montessori has taken me from London, to the US and then back to Singapore.

I embarked on Montessori training for a year and completed in 1990.  I went on to complete a degree in general psychology after which I felt I still wanted to work with children.  Wonderfully I am learning new things every single day.

DirectressAfter earning my degree in Psychology, I was stirred by the desire to take part in the process of education.  For three years, I taught Primary 1 and 2 in the Philippines and gained experience in nurturing the mind and character of the children.  The Montessori method of teaching has opened my eyes to the beauty of allowing each child to discover and explore opportunities for learning.  This experience has now influenced me to pursue a course in the Montessori Method of Teaching  which I am sure will only shape me to become a better educator.

Wen Hui

DirectressI am from Shandong, China and I joined The Little House (Montessori) in July 2008.  I have undergone Montessori training as well as a Diploma in Pre-School Teaching. The diploma landed me a year of experience in teaching in a kindergarten in China. One of the many reasons for my venturing to Singapore is to increase my experience and exposure in teaching Mandarin in a multi-cultural environment.

Teaching at The Little House (Montessori) gives me the pleasure of working with children from different cultures.  They are not afraid to interact and converse with me in Mandarin.  In fact, I am pleased that they feel comfortable.  I definitely enjoy working with them while having lots of fun learning from them.

Administrative Controller.  I enjoy working  at The Little House (Montessori).  Although I originally dreamt of teaching what I am doing presently is giving me a feeling of being at school; doing projects and reports, even studying and being clever and alert at all times. Working here reminds me that I have learnt a lot and will still be learning more.

 

To top it off, I cannot believe that I am having fun while learning on the job!

Directress. My hometown is in Johor, Malaysia, which is a beautiful tropical country. I graduated from University Tunku Abdul Rahman (UTAR) with First Class Honor Bachelor Degree in Chinese Studies.

The Little House (Montessori) is a wonderful kindergarten because it has a good learning environment and education strategy. It also has very nice, patient and responsible teachers and I am proud to be one of them.

Ting

Directress. My love for educating and nurturing children became apparent after the birth of my son in 2007. Having been a stay-home mum for 2 years, I began to recognise the importance of early childhood education and the impact it has on a child's future development. Therefore, this inspired me to pursue a career in pre-school teaching. I joined The Little House (Montessori) in February 2010. I am thankful for the opportunity to build my career in this dynamic school where everything and everyone exists to create a fruitful learning journey for the children. TLH has definitely opened my eyes and mind to the Montessori philosophy and method of education. I truly enjoy my time here with the children and staff.
