As we celebrate International Women’s Day, Ms Evelyn reminds our students: “You are enough.” Break those glass ceilings and ignore the noise! – Ms Evelyn

“I truly believe you cannot pour from an empty bottle. If you can master the small rituals of your morning, you can master the massive challenges of your day. Ultimately, my ‘over the top’ routines are not just about the mirror; they are about the standard I set for how I show up in the world.”- Dr Evelyn Chen

“Our brain is what we tell it. We must remain positive and feed our minds with only the good stuff… Your beliefs become your thoughts, your thoughts become your words, and your words become your destiny.”
— Ms Evelyn

While our students are busy mastering the “Present Simple” and exploring “Worlds Apart,” our Executive Director, Ms Evelyn Chen, reminds us of the “sacred place” Chinese New Year holds in our hearts.

“This is our beautiful Malaysian idiosyncrasy: we don’t just meet; we makan. Food is everywhere and despite the health statistics, it is a point of immense national pride. We don’t just eat to live; we eat to connect.”- Ms Evelyn

This past week has been a powerful reminder of what it means to have a “village.” From the stage at the Ritz Carlton to the vibrant classrooms at ILTI, success is never a solo trek; it is a mosaic of every teacher, parent and student who dares to invest in a vision.

Ms Evelyn, recently took a moment to pause and reconnect with our roots at the historic Seri Negara. Standing in the halls where the Federation of Malaya Agreement was signed is a powerful reminder of how our past shapes the leaders we are raising today.

My closet became a museum of everything I wasn’t allowed to be. I couldn’t be a designer, so I became their best customer, buying the courage I was too scared to put on a canvas myself. Can’t design the handbag? Buy it. Can’t sketch the perfect shoe? Procure! – Ms Evelyn

“I have traded my youthful panic for something far more powerful: a system. Experience is a gift. It teaches you that panic doesn’t solve problems, planning does. Calm thinking does. Systems do.”- Ms Evelyn

“This year, I have resolved only one thing: to truly live.” — Ms Evelyn, Director of Schools. ❤️
