Happy Staff, Happy Learners
At Sharp Learners, the learning never stops. This is true for students as well as teachers. We believe in continuous training for all our colleagues to refresh teaching methods and ensure classrooms are a safe and dynamic space of learning.
We value our teachers. Together with strategic pedagogy, well-trained teachers form the bedrock of a successful enrichment centre. Our core values lie in mindfulness, mental wellbeing, and a commitment to lesson innovation.
There is meaning in everything we do, and building a supportive, compassionate and knowledgeable network of teachers who are passionate about education is a big part of that.
