About

Kegan holds a Bachelor of Arts with Merit in English Language from the National University of Singapore and a Certificate of English Language Teaching from Cambridge University. He has taught students as young as 9 years old and as old as 36.

As a student, I hated English lessons. They were simply too boring for me. What made things worse was that, I couldn’t write well. During my secondary school days, I constantly failed my English tests to the point that I nearly had to repeat my 1st year. It was disastrous at best. My teachers wrote the same message again and again in my report book – “Kegan should read more books.”

It was not possible. I didn’t like reading. Every time I get my essay back, I could see that I didn’t do well. That was it. I never knew why, what went wrong, or how to do better. No one taught me how to write well. They just told me I didn’t do well.

But a change of attitude towards reading changed my life forever. Today, I hold a BA in English Language from NUS and a CELTA from Cambridge University. But it was not enough for me. I know that there must be an effective way writing can be taught. That was when I sat down and spent 2 years analysing essay pieces and discovered the elements that are always present in well-written pieces.

This discovery got me excited and I couldn’t wait to share it with everyone. The Insider Secrets to the Art of Creative Writing was then written and is now available for sale. With this purchase, you are not only helping yourself but you’re also helping me help other children whose families cannot afford tuition. Help change your life and other children’s lives.

I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
