Dr. Ken has experience teaching in the Gifted Education Programme (GEP) and integrated programme at Dunman High School (DHS), Singapore. He was also the Subject Head of English at DHS, where he designed and implemented the interdisciplinary Language Arts curriculum.
Dr. Ken has published a number of educational titles. The play anthology that he edited in partnership with the Ministry of Education, Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed (2018), has been adopted as a textbook in over 45 Singapore secondary schools.
A virtual world that can be harnessed for education to promote discovery, inquiry, and experiential learning.
It reflects the nature of the 21st century world which is increasingly becoming technology-driven, interactive, and multimodal.
English language education in Singapore now require students to navigate videos, posters and other digital media. It is no longer just about mastering traditional language skills.
To be effective 21st century communicators, students must be adaptable, resilient, and inquisitive.
The Doyobi metaverse is designed to be an immersive digital world where students take on roles, complete quests, cultivate relationships, develop communication skills and have fun.
It’s a safe space for discovery, exploration, learning and play.
Sign your child up for a weekly class in the Doyobi metaverse that suits their schedule.
1.5 hours of online adventures every week.
Your child joins their first online adventure and starts honing their English language skills through tasks that require exploring, evaluating, gathering, synthesising and co-creating.
Students learn about themselves, learn about others, and learn about the world through interactions with others.
In between live online classes, students engage in offline tasks based on the adventure narrative that help them develop core communication skills.
Doyobi facilitators then provide advice and feedback on completed tasks.

Discussions on problem-based tasks
“I'm all for fun ways of learning, and writing is a good skill to have. The kid surely doesn't like regular classes.”
“Improvement of composition writing (which my son needs) using novel means that I believe my son will dig.”
“Always up for new ways to jog the brain and get kids inspired. Play-based. Much easier sell to my daughter who won't go to writing courses(boring..).”
“(Gabriella) did mention having to talk to other kids and having more group discussions made the class more fun.”
“Interesting way to get the youth to think both logically/analytically and creatively”
“(Eli) learnt to work with others in his team and listen to others' ideas.”
