ALIAH SULAIMAN

Aliah Binte Sulaiman joined the Dyslexia Association of Singapore (DAS) in 2020 and is currently a Senior Educational Therapist at the Parkway Parade and Toa Payoh Learning Centres. She teaches both the Main Literacy Programme (MLP) and Mathematics, supporting students with diverse learning needs.

Aliah graduated from Nanyang Technological University with a degree in Engineering and began her career as an engineer. Alongside her professional work, she volunteered with organisations supporting less-fortunate communities, providing her with an experience that sparked her passion for education and led her to pursue a career at DAS.

Over the years, Aliah has worked with a wide range of students with special educational needs, including those with ADHD and ASD. She is deeply passionate about teaching and believes that every child can learn when given the right support and encouragement. Aliah is especially motivated to work with students who require greater guidance, and her goal is to help them build confidence, experience success, and develop a genuine joy in learning that stays with them beyond the classroom.
