Introduction:

Just a simple Music Teacher but with BIG DREAM!.

Hello, I'm Bee Bee Ong, a music teacher teaching in SK Seksyen 13, Shah Alam, Malaysia.  I am also the International Programme Coordinator at my school. I have been teaching Music, English and Arts for 33 years. Teaching music is my passion and organising music programme are also my forte.

The programme emphasis of sharing knowledge through global classroom, understanding each culture, open minded thought and self-discipline. All these values apply throughout the programme.

Professional Experience:

Icon Teacher 2019 and Best Volunteer Award 2021

In my previous role at SK Seri Bintang Utara, Kuala Lumpur , I trained choir , action song and performances for the VIP. I was one of the MUSIC PANEL TRAINERS in Kuala Lumpur. This experience honed my skills in teaching music, training student and organizing events locally and globally. In 2012, my school was awarded as National Cluster School and received funds from the Ministry of Education.

With the fund we had, it allowed me to have more challenge and global projects. We started to organize Choral Festival, Musical Festival, Malaysia-Korea Students Exchange which help to create opportunity to normal public school to travel abroad and contribute in making more global leaders.    

I am currently a music teacher at SK Seksyen 13, where I teach music for year 1 to 6. I am also the Head of Panel Music and in charge of all the performances and competition locally and overseas. As the head of panel, I have to raise fund for the panel and school. With the support from the parents and students, now we have one air-conditional music room, music gallery, store room, music studio and music garden.

In spite of facilities, I had successfully brought my choristers to Vietnam, Korea, Singapore, Macau and Indonesia for performances and competition. Notably, I have succeed to bring up the school standard and reputation in the country and internationally.

Key Skills: Teaching Music with passion!

• Be an open minded teacher!
• Be creative and innovative!
• Never stop learning, seize the opportunity!

These skills, combined with my dedication in teaching music and organizing events, enable me to get to know more choristers and participants from oversea. Through webcam activities, I get to know teachers and students from Turkey, Serbia, Indonesia, Russia, Philippines, Egypt, India and Korea.

Professional Values: Never ever stop and always on the move!

I am driven by a commitment to seize the opportunity. This passion fuels my desire to look for more global projects and competition.

Continuous Learning: Always a Positive Leader

I am a firm believer in continuous learning. I recently completed a certification in SDG, during the covid pandemic, I attended more than 50 webinars and conferences so that I can stay at the forefront in the education journey.
