"WE NEED MORE PASSIONATE, RESILIENT, AND TALENTED INDIVIDUALS WHO RESONATE WITH OUR MISSION TO SUPPORT US IN OUR JOURNEY."
The CEO and founder of Zenith Learning Group shares how he plans to build the future of education beyond the traditional.
In five words, how would you describe what you do?
Building the future of education.
Why is your work important to the world today?
Education is an extremely traditional industry, with far less innovation than other industries. At Zenith, we want to transform students’ traditional education experience into something more data-driven, personalised, and hybrid-based. We also want to help teachers teach more effectively and parents be more informed and involved in their child’s educational journey.
We do this by developing inclassroom teaching tools for teachers to teach more effectively while collecting student data to help personalise learning. We also have an online learning platform called Zendora, where primary school students can learn English, Math, and Science through various mediums, such as animated videos and live-stream lessons.
What do people most misunderstand about the work that you do?
That Zenith is just a tuition centre chain that aims to become the largest private enrichment company in Singapore. While we have established ourselves as the largest enrichment company in Singapore’s secondary and junior college market, we do not want our impact to be limited to students in these markets.
