Summary

Candy has been actively involved in drama and musical productions since 2014. She is confident in helping students, especially struggling learners to excel, through small group instructions and interactions. She focused on improving student collaborative skills, confidence and expressiveness rather than just academic performance and test readiness. "Life is like a drama." With mutual respect, she believes theatre is a good way to learn life-long skills and explore lives' meaning and values.
