Zanariah (Zana) graduated with a Diploma in Child Psychology and Early Childhood Education from Ngee Ann Polytechnic. Upon graduation, Zana was working in the social service sector. During her time there, she specialised in early intervention for children who required individualised support. This experience helped shape her teaching philosophy – students must be given ample learning opportunities and self discovery, so that they can harness their own strength and competency. Zana is also a strong advocate for holistic education.

In her free time, Zana enjoys travelling with her family, exploring new food and enjoying local and international scenes.
