Testimonials

I’ve known Elizabeth for more than 20 years, including both at NUS and Harvard. She is an extraordinarily talented teacher. She cares deeply about her students and their learning experience. She engages with each student individually. She makes learning fun — she is creative and energetic, and her classes are often filled with laughter. Students taught by Elizabeth are in for a unique and rewarding experience — her love of learning is contagious!

Scott Leland, Former Executive Director, Harvard University, USA

I first met Elizabeth over 10 years ago, when she visited us from the Harvard Club of Singapore. She joined some events and talks organised by our Harvard Business School – Alumni Club of Malaysia, in Kuala Lumpur. We have stayed in touch through the years. Elizabeth is a Mason Fellow from the John F Kennedy School of Government, now known as Harvard Kennedy School, at Harvard Univesity. We from the business school at Harvard wish her well in all she does.

Elizabeth edited a book project recently. I was very impressed with her meticulous attention to every detail. Not a single mistake escaped her attention. She is also a wonderful wordsmith who helped me to communicate my thoughts in a simple and concise manner.
Elizabeth has a lot of heart, and I greatly appreciated her patience and friendly advice in helping me with my drafts, and with explanations on the rubrics of writing. I am deeply grateful to her and highly recommend her to anyone who is interested in learning English in a fun and engaging way.

Michael P, Business Development Director

Elizabeth is one of the most pleasant persons I have worked with. While we were colleagues, she was more of a client but she has always treated us as equals in the way she interacted with our team. I wish I had more opportunities to work with her and learn from her. There’s so much, I think, one can learn from her as a person.

JW, Manager

Prof Elizabeth Su was such a caring and wonderful lecturer for my course in SMU. After finding out that I’m a student with visual impairment, she went above and beyond by reciting and recording the textbook in order to assist me in my studies. I will never forget her kindness and how she made such an impact on me.

Jeffrey Soh, Business Lead

I worked with Elizabeth first when she was a freelance scriptwriter and film producer with Mediacorp Singapore and then, when she was lecturing at Singapore Management University. As an educator and media practitioner, she has always been very passionate and infectious, always ready to impart her wealth of knowledge and expertise.

Dorothy Ng, PR Practitioner

Prof Elizabeth Su has been a wonderful professor who truly leaves a deep impression and impact through her phenomenal teaching skills and deep knowledge of storytelling. She truly helps to envision putting together pieces of the puzzle through the power of language and communication. I would highly recommend engaging with Prof Elizabeth Su — her compassion and passion are her strongest suit and she has been instrumental in inspiring me to craft my own life story.

Astha Kalbag, Ex-Googler

I’ve had the opportunity to have taken a course in university under Prof Elizabeth Su. She was also my faculty advisor for an overseas program during university. With her depth of experience in education, she is a passionate educator and an individual who displays empathy for others. Prof Su’s command of the English language is impeccable and I find wisdom, and am sometimes amazed by her clarity and flow of writing. During my encounters with her, she often provides perspectives which challenge my thinking, which I deeply appreciate.

Kenneth Kong, Junior Trader

Prof Elizabeth Su was a professor I encountered during my undergraduate studies at SMU. She is one of the most caring and empathetic professors I’ve encountered, constantly coming up with relevant, interesting content and also caring for the students’ well-being at the same time. She strives to not only instil knowledge, but also to encourage and motivate students, to let them know it is okay to take things at their own pace.

Ng Swee Hong, Analyst

Prof Elizabeth Su is a caring teacher and mentor, a deft writer, and a brilliant repository of experience and expertise to students and professionals. She has thrived and shone in a multitude of environments, from Europe to Asia, in academia, industry, and for the public sector. From my experience with her, such as during the Model ASEAN Meeting in Bangkok, she was the ‘go-to person’ for educators and undergraduates alike on matters of regional affairs, policy and most importantly, how to ‘get the message across’. In her interactions, she has always left her audience more assured, more optimistic, and more focused on their path ahead. English merely happens to be her medium of communication.

Zhi Liang

I worked with Prof Elizabeth Su closely when she was teaching at SMU. I had the great pleasure to attend some of her classes. She always has her unique approaches to encourage the students to think independently, be self-motivated and enjoy the lectures. She is not only teaching the students for the subjects but giving them the methods and cultivating a positive and optimistic attitude that will go with the students for their lifetime. She truly cares about her students and all her students love her too. I encourage you to chat with her at least, if you are looking for a real educator.

Mr Ni, Executive Director at an American MNC

Prof Elizabeth Su is a motherly tutor who taught me techniques on how to read academic / research papers during my university days. This helped me tremendously to cope with understanding the topics required. She is approachable and friendly, and I felt very comfortable seeking her help to clarify my concepts further when I needed extra coaching outside of her class time. Not only that, with her valuable overseas academic exposure, she also provided advice for me and my friend on how we could adapt to different cultures when we went on our overseas exchange programme — where she goes beyond her effort as a lecturer! I’m thankful for her assistance throughout my university days!

Cindy G

I’ve had the pleasure of attending Prof Su’s classes in university and have fond memories of the engaging, thought-provoking discussions that are a hallmark of her lectures. This has left an indelibly positive impact in the development of my analytical, reasoning and communication skills, the benefits of which I’m currently reaping in my professional capacities. ​

Bryan Tan, Regional Sales, Corporate Bank

I got to know Professor Su at Singapore Management Univeristy – first as a student in her class and then as her Teaching Assistant. Professor Su has an amazing ability to make all her students feel at ease. Through her gentle yet assertive approach, she pushed us to think critically and be informed citizens of the world. I am impressed by how much care Professor Su shows towards her students. We are still in touch 7 years after my graduation and she continues to be a great mentor to me.

I am a former student of Prof Su and have worked with her as well. She is an amazing teacher who is well versed in many topics and will ensure that her students will understand the topics well. She is also extremely helpful and understanding toward her students. Studying and working with Prof Su has truly been an incredible learning experience for me holistically. ​

Professor Su has been one of the best professors I have had. She is a very affectionate, loving and nurturing person who goes above and beyond to help all her students and make the classes fun and interactive. She not only gave us the opportunity to think and present our ideas, but also helped build our confidence in presenting them. Thanks to Prof’s guidance and support, I grew as an individual and learnt beyond just the classroom materials. It has been a privilege to be her student and her classes are definitely one of my fondest memories from SMU.
