I love working with children! During my MEd, I worked as a research assistant (part-time) in the Laboratory for Early Childhood Research at the University of Hong Kong. My research interests are extensive. Currently, my research mainly focuses on children’s mathematical thinking and learning, cognitive development, educational technologies, and learning sciences. I have also performed studies related to computational thinking and language development. Additionally, I have teaching qualifications and have worked as a teacher intern in several kindergartens while working as a research assistant in my undergraduate.

My research interests include examining the use of various games and pedagogies to support young children's mathematical learning across contexts. I am also an experienced teacher in Hong Kong kindergartens and tertiary institutions of early childhood education. 

My teaching perspectives and experiences contribute to research through data collection and analysis. I collaborate with local kindergarten principals and teachers to support children's mathematical learning and to explore the boundaries around applying supportive teaching methods in the local context. 

Working with children presents a unique opportunity to have a profound and lasting impact on their lives. The formative years are critical in shaping a child's future, and the experiences, guidance, and love they receive during this time can greatly influence their development.

As an experienced research assistant, my work has involved organizing participatory design workshops with parents and teachers to develop educational games, designing surveys and play-based experiments, analyzing data, and drafting reports and manuscripts. With a strong interest in SFON (Spontaneous Focusing on Numerosity) and picture book reading, I am dedicated to exploring innovative teaching strategies to support children's math learning.
