Jonathan Jerryl Ang
Educational Therapist
“Hello, I’m Jonathan—though most people call me Jon! I’m an educational therapist at KidzOTC, and my approach is inspired by Dr. Wayne W. Dyer’s philosophy: “Change your thoughts, change your life.” I believe that nurturing positive self-perception and confidence in children is key to helping them realize their full potential.
Outside of work, I’m a creative at heart and currently channelling my passion into photography, which allows me to see and share the world through a unique perspective.”
