Dr Soon Yik Mean

Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Education

As a working professional, I valued the University’s flexible structure, which enabled me to balance doctoral study with ongoing professional responsibilities. The programme challenged me to think more critically, research more systematically, and write more analytically, while continuously linking theory with real-world educational practice. It also sharpened my intellectual discipline, deepened my appreciation for evidence-based practice, and strengthened my confidence as a scholar-practitioner. Overall, the journey was both personally and professionally transformative, preparing me to contribute more meaningfully to education, leadership development, and lifelong learning.

Bachelor of Digital Business (Honours)

The block-mode structure was incredibly beneficial, allowing me to focus entirely on one module at a time to produce high-quality assignments and research. This entire experience has completely transformed my time management skills; learning online has taught me strict self-discipline and made me far more committed and organized in my career.

The flexibility of the programme allowed me to catch up on my lectures anywhere, at any time, even between classes. Applying psychology to my teaching has completely changed how I understand and support my students—my principal and colleagues noticed the improvement immediately, and my students are truly thriving.

Bachelor of Business (Hons) in Sales and Marketing

During the MCO, I lost my job and felt uncertain about the future. With the encouragement and support of my family, I enrolled in WOU through APEL to restart my journey and pursue my passion for business.

Returning to the classroom after three years wasn’t easy—I struggled with academic writing, English readings, and coursework requirements. But with the patient guidance of WOU lecturers and the support of my classmates, I overcame my fears and gradually found my rhythm again.

My WOU journey gave me more than just a degree. I gained practical marketing knowledge and consumer insights that I could apply in real life. More importantly, I built confidence, resilience, and the belief that lifelong learning can truly transform one’s future.
