In this special column called the “TLC x Fempreneurs Series”, we will be featuring inspiring Female Entrepreneurs (Fempreneurs) in short. You will be able to have a sneak peek at their mindsets and their daily habits.

Believe in the power of community. On some days when you feel big goals are impossible, or when you feel like giving up, you need to lean on your like-minded community. You can even “borrow” motivation, and in turn “return” with your own inspiring stories to pay it forward.

At Write Edge, we specialize in providing high-quality English and Writing tuition classes for Primary and Secondary school students in Singapore.

From just 12 students and 1 branch in Lorong Ah Soo, Singapore, Write Edge has since expanded to 7 physical branches,1 online arm called WELearn, and also offers online classes to students in Malaysia.

What got you started on your business? 

Eileen Chin, my co-founder, and I started the English enrichment centre in 2014 with a vision to deliver exceptionally effective lessons that help to build a strong foundation in the English language and nurture writing skills in young students.

Before you started on your business, what did you do on a full-time basis?

I was an associate trainee on the corporate team at Weber Shandwick.

What were some difficulties you faced in your life and how did you overcome them?

Running the company, it’s never a bed of roses – you face challenges as you scale. I believe in dreaming big yet having your feet firmly planted on the ground. Surrounding myself with a great team and wise mentors have helped me tremendously. I also think that it is important to have grit.

My mother inspires me. She is a wise, intelligent, gentle, and meek woman. She came from Pontian, Malaysia.

What excites you most about your industry?

The ability to impact the lives of many children through our work.

What is your vision / personal motto?

Living my best life/living to my fullest potential.
