Activate Your Self-Esteem Using Metacognition

Biography:

Selyn Chen was a former researcher in National Institute of Education, Singapore (NIE). She researched on Metacognition under Dr. Lee Ngan Hoe in the department of Mathematics and Mathematical Education (MME). Their research topics were focused on the discrepancy between teachers' knowledge of metacognition as well as how metacognitive strategies are used in the teachers’ classroom.

With the valuable guidance from her professor, she got intrigued to explore other applications of Metacognition in helping people (such as clinical psychology, leadership and performance development, personal development and effective communication).

She has a very diverse work experience ranging from educational and psychological research, project management, entrepreneurship, innovation labs, engineering, and coaching. She is a person who loves to learn and share her knowledge. Selyn believes that the basis of real living is constant learning and sharing knowledge in helping others.
