Background

About Rosalyn Wee

I have over 15 years of experience in educational therapy, primarily teaching literacy and executive functioning skills to children from primary school to institutions of Higher Learning. I have a Master of Arts in Applied Linguistics, a Post-Graduate Certificate in Specific Learning Differences from London Metropolitan University, a Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults from the University of Cambridge, an Advanced Certificate in Teaching and Assessment from the Institute of Adult Learning, Certificates in Further Education and Higher Education, and Executive Function skills from the DAS Academy. My expertise is in helping neurodivergent learners, including Dyslexia, Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Autism Spectrum Disorder, and Global Developmental Delay. As a curriculum specialist, I helped develop the Main Literacy Programme's curriculum by incorporating writing and comprehension at my previous workplace, the Dyslexia Association of Singapore. I also co-founded its post-secondary school programme, iStudySmart, which aimed to help students improve their Time Management and Prioritisation, Planning and Organisation, Tertiary Writing and Presentation skills. As programme manager of iStudySmart from 2017 to 2024, I have helped over 30 students from Institutes of Technical Education, polytechnics, and universities through either face-to-face or online classes. Most students have reportedly made significant gains in their study skills and self-confidence for future success. Armed with a Well-being Facilitator Certificate from the MAP Coaching Institute, I now aim to bring my expertise to the Adult Mentoring Programme at Swords & Stationery which specialises in using role-playing games to teach students. In my spare time, I adjunct lecture at the DAS Academy to parents, school teachers and special needs teachers-in-training. I also volunteer with the Fertility Support Group Singapore by creating social media posts. In the future, I aspire to host mindfulness and forest bathing sessions for mothers-to-be and mothers during the postpartum period.
