Ms Genevieve's Profile
As much as Ms. Genevieve enjoyed being behind the camera and writing stories for the screen, she was equally passionate about working with kids. At the age of 17, she started teaching part-time in public schools and working with charitable organisations. During her time at NUS, she was building schools and playgrounds in Cambodia with her peers at the Rotary Society. It was her early stints in the creative industry and teaching that led her to recognise how language inspires confidence and nurtures empathy. Passionate about helping students cultivate tenacity and curiosity, Ms. Genevieve worked with a progressive art learning studio to implement a Social Emotional Programme that helps kids foster independent thinking and a healthy identity through language and artistic expression. That rewarding experience propelled her to pursue teaching as a calling.
Since then, Ms. Genevieve has been teaching at tuition centres for six years, specialising in creative writing. She continues to mine fascinating insights from advertising, pop culture, and music to liven up her classrooms. A firm believer that small steps can lead to remarkable results, she is excited to ignite a love for learning with her novel teaching approaches at Lil’ but Mighty. As she recognises that all students are individuals who learn in their own unique way, Ms. Genevieve employs varied teaching techniques to help her students of all levels maximise their learning. Embodying the philosophy of lifelong learning, she continually innovates and integrates new teaching ideas to help her students develop an insatiable curiosity whilst achieving academic success.
What is it like working at LBM?
You’re surrounded by a group of individuals who work hard and play hard. There’s never a dull moment in the office with this vibrant community of individuals. I’m blessed to be surrounded by colleagues who are supportive and ignite my passion for helping students.
What inspires you to teach?
Teaching allows me to grow as a person, and I enjoy interacting with children. Although the profession is demanding in many ways, I guess I get my greatest highs in life from helping my students live up to their potential. I think that my students have taught me a lot about life and what work truly means to me.
Why do you love teaching English?
English is fascinating to me because the language is constantly evolving. New words and expressions are added to the dictionary periodically, while some gradually lose their significance in society. I’m always curious about the etymology of words because they reveal a sliver of insight into our culture and the human condition. When you teach English, you’re also instilling the language of empathy. You’re helping students become effective communicators and teaching them to interpret experiences from another’s perspective.
What do you do in your free time?
I love Muay Thai, photography, and cooking. However, these days, I spend most of my free time indulging in a good film. Currently, I’m also learning how to speak Thai so that I can communicate with my Muay Thai trainers.
