As one of the co-founders of LIA, Endina has various teaching experience under her belt since her teenage years. She graduated from National University of Singapore in 2003. Language has always been her interest because she believes language is the key to understanding others. She received various awards in Indonesian and English language and literature in her school days. She has learnt Mandarin, Japanese and is proficient in Javanese dialect.

With these skills and her genuine interest in people, she has involved in various social activities involving people from different countries and backgrounds. She has taught Indonesian language to doctors, bankers, lawyers, and many others.

She loves to teach Indonesian language because she believes Indonesia has lots of potential and she desires Indonesia to be known by more people in the world. With these principles, she always encourages those who want to learn Indonesian to learn beyond language. Therefore, she often gives cultural tips and insights to her students. Endina’s enthusiasm towards language and people, together with her proficiency in the subject she teaches have generated positive feedbacks from her students. In 2015, she sat for UKBI (Uji Kemahiran Berbahasa Indonesia) and attained first place in the test among hundreds of participants.

14Testimonial2021

A good start to gain a basic understanding of the language.

“The beginner’s class is a good start to gain a basic understanding of the language, I picked up Bahasa Indonesia faster than I expected. Each lesson is interesting, the teacher (Ms Endina) would let our class role-play, do a pop quiz, and create challenges to test our understanding of what we have learnt. Besides learning the language, I also gained some insights to the culture, the current slangs and short-forms used by Indonesians . I found that useful!

I did half of my course online, via zoom, and the other half in classroom. Classroom learning is better as it’s great to interact with the classmates, but online is also a good option for those can’t go to the venue. The venue is a lovely space in UIC Building, really convenient esp if you are in the CBD.”
— Billie, Self-Employed
