Educator | Researcher | Life Coach …I am rooted, but I flow


Based in Singapore🇸🇬 This page is a bit long, it's all about me. Hopefully you will find it interesting though:)

翻开我的使用说明书📖

Hey there, serendipitous acquaintance, welcome to my cyber realm! I'm Yi Ting, currently a lecturer at the Singapore Centre for Chinese Language, where I specialize in technology-empowered language learning. My passion spans educational technology, gamified learning, motivational strategies, autonomous learning, and multimodal teaching—all aimed at making the teaching of the Chinese language in Singapore not just more engaging but deeply meaningful.

 

Since childhood, I've been a fervent language enthusiast, driven by a curiosity for different languages that has taken me across continents. From teaching Spanish to English and then Mandarin, each language has been a window to vibrant cultural worlds, igniting my imagination with the myriad possibilities of life. These journeys have not only fueled my passion for language education but have also cemented my belief that learning about different languages and cultures is a key to unlocking journeys of self-discovery, growth, and experiencing diversity and happiness.

 

If you've ever attended my classes, you'd know my penchant for breaking the mold and challenging the status quo. I'm a firm believer that education should be a journey filled with discovery, a path toward freedom and love through self-actualization. The traditional education system often limits our imagination and natural curiosity towards learning. I'm convinced that through engaging, straightforward yet profound conversations, we can uncover the treasures in this game of learning.

 

So, dear serendipitous friend, if you share the belief that education can be an enlightening journey filled with joy, then you've found your tribe. Let's embark on this adventure together, exploring the limitless possibilities of education and language learning, and carving out our unique paths in this world of challenges and opportunities.

 

I look forward to meeting you on this wonderful journey <3

嗨,有缘人,欢迎来到我的赛博空间!我是轶婷老师,目前担任新加坡华文教研中心的讲师,专业领域是科技赋能的语言学习,研究方向包括教育科技,游戏化学习,学习驱动力,自主学习,多模态教学等。工作时候的我,专注于帮助新加坡的华文老师把教学变得更加有趣且有意义

在进入学术领域之前,我自小就对不同语言充满好奇,这份好奇让我跨越了大洋,从教授西班牙语到英语,再到华语。每一种语言都如同一扇窗,让我窥见了不同文化的精彩世界,给了我对更多人生可能性的想象和选择。这些珍贵经历不仅点燃了我对语言教育的热情,也让我深信:学习一门新语言和文化,是开启心灵冒险,体验成长,自我探索与感知幸福的旅程。

如果你来过我的课,你会感受到,我最喜欢打破常规,出其不意,挑战传统的既定规则。因为我从小叛逆(哈哈),我相信,教育本应该是充满惊喜的探索之旅,是一场走向自由与爱的自我发现与实现之旅。而我们不过是被长久以来的填鸭与规训限制了对学习这个超好玩游戏的想象力和与生俱来的好奇心。我始终相信,通过有趣,白话但不失深度的交流,我们可以重构这场游戏,并从中寻找属于我们自己的宝藏。

所以,亲爱的有缘人,如果你也相信教育可以是一场充满乐趣和启发的旅程,那你就来对地方了!让我们一起开启这段旅程,探索教育和语言学习的无限可能,一起在这个既充满挑战又充满机遇的世界中找到我们的位置。

期待与你在这段美妙旅程中相遇<3

Quick Facts about Me | 快速了解我是谁

Quick Facts about Me

1. A former teacher of Spanish, English, and Mandarin. Currently a freelance spiritual healer and listener. 

2. The most remote place I've journeyed to is the enigmatic Easter Island, where speaking Spanish led to an extraordinary connection with the locals.

 

3. An avid reader, always on a journey, whether in body or spirit. If I had to recommend a must-read, it would be I May Be Wrong.

 

4. Once, I stepped away from teaching, yearning for liberation from constraints and to heal from emotional exhaustion. I slowly found my way back to the classroom after encountering teachers/mentors who changed the trajectory of my life, helping me meet a better version of myself. I aspire to be that empowering presence for others.

 

5. Beyond academia, my life is full of zest, and stand-up comedy is one of my biggest joys—I'm a huge fan of Trevor Noah, Jon Stewart, John Oliver, Ronny Chieng, and Jimmy O. Yang. In another parallel universe, I fancy myself as a stand-up comedian.

 

6. As an educator, I hold two beliefs close to my heart: 1) influence without authority, and 2) nothing is boring if you transform it into a good story.
