TEACHER’S BIOGRAPHY
TEACHER’S BIOGRAPHY
Ms Chew Chai Ying
Ms. Chew began studying calligraphy under the guidance of Liu Mingliang at the age of 10 and has since accumulated over a decade of experience. After graduating from university, she worked in the oil and e-commerce industries, holding managerial positions in a large company. As the demands of daily life began to weigh her down, she felt a growing sense of losing her focus. This led her to return to calligraphy, where she dedicated herself to mastering the art, participating in several exhibitions both domestically and abroad. Ms. Chew believes that calligraphy is a form of personal expression and is eager to share the joy of learning with others.
