Our Best-in-Class Teachers

Heguru Education Centre consists of best-in-class educators who understand the importance of right brain development in moulding children to be the best that they can be.
Each instructor in our team is well-equipped with knowledge, technical skills and experience to effectively deliver our unique programmes.
More so, we are sincerely concerned about the well-being of our students. We see ourselves as no different from their parents, who want nothing but the highest quality education possible for their children.

All our main teachers at Heguru Education Centre have undergone rigorous certification in the headquarter in Heguru Japan. They are all personally coached and certified by Heguru founders Mrs Ruiko Henmi and Mr Hirotada Henmi, to ensure that they can effectively deliver the original Heguru programmes.

Eng Liang, on what made him bring Heguru to Singapore.

Eng Liang, the Founder of Heguru Education Centre (One KM, Sengkang, Waterway Point, Tampines), was offered both the PLE-EDB overseas scholarship (to USA) and the Public Service Commission (PSC) – Singapore Government Scholarship (to France). He accepted the former and pursued his bachelor’s degree in one of the top Ivy League schools, Cornell University (USA). After returning from USA, he continued to pursue a Master’s Degree at the National University of Singapore.

Upon comparing his local and overseas studies, Eng Liang observed how “left-brained” the Singapore educational system could be. There is precious little focus on developing the right brain of children.

When his wife became pregnant with their first child, Eng Liang began to do some research on right brain development and training for young children. He chanced upon Heguru, which was not available in Singapore then.

With great interest, he contacted Heguru in 2011 and was invited to meet the founders of HEGL, Japan, Mr. Hirotada Henmi and Mrs. Ruiko Henmi. He was amazed by the effectiveness of Heguru programmes, seeing how smart and focused their primary school students were. Having been touched by Mr. and Mrs. Henmi’s passion and having witnessed for himself the success of their endeavours, Eng Liang decided to bring Heguru to Singapore, not only to benefit his own son, but all the little learners here.
