Hello and welcome!
​
At Drez Chinese Academy, we believe that language is far more than a tool for communication—it’s a bridge to understanding, creativity, and endless opportunities.
For over 16 years, I’ve had the privilege of guiding students through the intricacies of the Chinese language, not just to master it but to fall in love with its beauty, depth, and the worlds it opens up.
​
Our academy was born from a simple yet powerful vision: to create a space where students feel inspired to explore, express, and connect.
​
Learning here is not just about exams or grades; it’s about building confidence, sparking curiosity, and developing a lifelong relationship with learning.
​
We take pride in offering more than just classes. Each session is crafted to combine cultural appreciation, personal growth, and the joy of discovery.
Whether you’re here to boost your skills for school, communicate globally, or simply embrace a new challenge, our unique approach ensures that you’ll find fulfillment every step of the way.
​
As a founder, I am committed to innovation and integrity in education. My years of experience have taught me that the best learning happens when students are supported, celebrated, and given room to express themselves fully.
That’s why we integrate creative methods, psychotherapeutic insights, and personalized guidance to ensure every student thrives.
​
Thank you for trusting us with your journey. I’m excited to see how your passion and potential will blossom here at Drez Chinese Academy. Together, let’s make learning a transformative and joyful experience.

Founder's Story
I started coaching Mandarin at the age of 17 and fast forward till today, it has been 15 years of expertise.
My students were from local and different countries such as Korea, Philippines, Indonesia and so on.
Many of them were still in school.
​
In 2018, my student, CL, confided with me that Mandarin is too challenging. It has too much writings and he could not remember the words despite multiple practices. He felt that the Mandarin lesson in his school was utterly uninspiring.
​
In that moment, i activated my genius zone and came up with specific solutions to help him without utilising the traditional way of repetitive character writings. He instantly improved his word quiz.
​
​
I began to notice from my students' experiences that the way Mandarin was delivered in school lessons were causing them to lose the interest , making them unenergised to learn and the practices and exams led them to stress and burnout.
They were craving for something more - a teaching method that will inspire them with the beauty of Mandarin, retain the learning and eliminate ineffective practices of Mandarin.
It was a real wake up call for me to revolutionise the way Mandarin was taught to people and chart a new path for Mandarin learners.
I crystallised my teaching method at that time and developed an upgraded version - a more fun and holistic learning method for Mandarin that is integrated with my knowledge and expertise i have gained from personal development experts all over the world.
With the knowledge from Neuroscience, Psychotherapy , Yoga ...
