It has been as
enjoyable and a fruitful experience with the Speech & Drama class. Just
want to share with you that now I'm teaching Speech & Drama at 3 schools

My
childhood dream and ambition had always been to be a teacher and
GIG has greatly helped me to achieve it. It has made me realize my full
potential.
GIG offers great hospitality. Its warmth and friendliness has created an
excellent learning environment for me to indulge in.
The programme mentor patiently guided me along the course and cleared my
many doubts with regards to my future undertaking courses. GIG also
recommends great job offers to its graduates.
The Cambridge International Diploma for Teachers & Trainers has now
enabled me to pursue a long awaited direct degree from a famous USA
University!

It is
through the guidance of the teachers at GIG that I
have to thank as they have shaped my life in so many ways it is
difficult for me to express my feelings with just mere words.
I applied everything that I've learned from these courses and I would
especially like to thank Chio Su Ping and Chet Choon for being the best
teachers and mentors I have EVER known.
They have taught me to see life in different
perspective. They have taught me to be a stronger and a more positive
person.
I was offered a position as a Speech and Drama teacher at SIM because of
my cert from DIPLOMA IN EDUCATION .
I was offered a position as a Creative Writing teacher at TMC teaching
adults foreigners because of the CAMBRIDGE INTERNATIONAL DIPLOMA FOR
TEACHERS AND TRAINERS.
Having a
FRIEND
so SWEET, so CARING
so TRUE, so SINCERE
is a TREASURE,
So I can't just imagine
how LUCKY I am to have known
these WONDERFUL people.
Once again
Thank You for all your support and care.
.............. and now I am a Professional Enrichment Teacher and
Trainer!!

I am truly appreciative of Melissa's time and effort
to provide additional value-added workshop trainings. The extra trainings
and notes she had provided for Phonics, Speech & Drama and Creative
Writing were valuable for new teachers like me....

I wish to
express my pleasant surprise to see that GIG staffs are
exceptionally helpful including the management who are ever
ready and available to clear our concerns or doubts with
patience and understanding. We do experience the warmthness as
if we are in a big family of GIG.
Unlike
the experience I had in my previous institution where the
management would only communicate to the students through
their officer. We did not even get a chance to meet up with
the Principal for the 18 months that we were attached to them.
The only contact they had with us was when some of the
students failed to pay up their fees due on time.
Thank you for
the concern and anxiety that we have caused you in seeing that
we do well in our pursue of excellence in our courses and the
scholarship offered to some of us to further our courses in
the Cambridge International Diploma for Teachers & Trainers.
We would strive
to do well and to contribute to the society we are in.
Yours Sincerely,

All of us have many teachers
in our lives. In fact, the planet is our teacher, and we are
our own teachers too!
My favourite teacher was my
secondary school moral education teacher. I was a teenager
then. He was a 50-year old riding a 125cc red motorcycle, but
sometimes, especially when it rained, he would drive a brown
van instead. His job was to assemble the school first thing in
the morning, and to dismiss the school at the end of the day.
He made regular announcements over the speakers. I thought he
was the principal’s personal assistant or somebody important.
He was a black man, very dark but not scary because he was
small built. He was also hardworking and fit, for he stood
“straight-up chest-out” and he was never absent. He was not
tall, yet he appeared huge. He was so knowledgeable, as he was
capable of teaching all subjects except Chinese. Above all, I
guessed what made him touched my heart most was that he was a
truly understanding person.
My favourite teacher - he
has been buried in the core of my heart for such a long time,
till recently when I dug up all the fond memories I’ve put
away, out again. GIG has caused all these to happen to me,
right from the beginning, from my Public Speaking Class to all
the subsequent courses I took with GIG.
I am a “course” person. I
signed up for all sorts of courses, and I engaged in many
types of activities. Though I have been a private tutor and a
martial arts assistant instructor, I have never felt so
“teacher-like” before, until I seriously embarked on an
enrichment course leading to teaching – the CIE International
Diploma for Teachers and Trainers..
The projects and assignments
have gotten me to sit down and ponder over and over the lesson
curriculum, which in the midst of producing my written work, I
uncontrollably referred to my “model answers” – i.e. to what
leads to a good lesson plan and a teacher. And not long did I
realize I have actually kept turning to the same page on my
memory diary, the page where records of my model teacher was
being kept under “lock & key” in my heart.
If I were a teacher, I would
be somebody who would resemble my favourite teacher.
With this, I would like to
present my appreciation to GIG Education Centre, for the
warmth and passion from my principal, my teachers and my
course mates alike. I thank all of you for the encouragement
and patience, for guiding me to bring out the best of myself.
I may not have transformed from my old low-esteemed self
totally, but rest assured that given time, I would be a better
person. And the teachings of GIG will continue to lead me to
become a more confident teacher in my teaching endeavours. The
best is yet to be.

Learning journey with GIG Education
Center
I have embarked on an unknown journey
with GIG Education Center in 2004. It is a journey of no
regrets though.
Learning can
be fun and interesting especially with dedicated and
experienced teachers who were willing to go the extra mile to
share with the students all that they know. The support from
the school played a very important part to help us feel
comfortable and be able to adapt to the different requirements
of the modules under tight schedule. I have enjoyed and
treasured every courses that I took with GIG, it leaves me
with beautiful memories and knowledge that I can even apply in
my daily life.
I would not
hesitate to recommend GIG to those who are seeking continuous
improvement to their careers, enhancement to their personal
and professional skills.
I wish GIG success and their
continual fulfillment of their mission to cultivate
Creativity, Dynamism and Integrity in teachers, who will in
turn develop and inculcate their students.
