Mentors :Mr Josephus Tan ( Founder),
Mr Josiah Zee ,
Mr Russell.
Students enjoyed the novel experience of visiting the court with Mr Josiah and Mr Russell, and sitting in the consultations. Most of the things they did during the week-long attachment were new things that they enjoyed exploring. They found Mr Josephus Tan’s sharing to be very authentic and inspiring. They also appreciated the patience shown to them by their mentors.
Mentors : Ms Hazel,
Ms Mabel Ang .
Students found the visit to PWC’s CBD office to be an eye-opening experience that provided them with a deeper insight into what an accounting job entails (e.g., not just accounting but also assurance, risk assessment and management, etc.). Some developed a higher interest in accounting after the visit. They appreciated the interactive and engaging format of the visit, which gave them the opportunity to pose questions and the patience shown by the speaker in providing clear explanations to their questions. They are thankful for the warm hospitality shown.
Mentor : Mr Raymond
Students found the brainstorming segment to be challenging yet engaging as they were able to challenge themselves to come up with creative solutions. They found their newly-gained creative problem-solving skills to be useful and applicable in their lives. They are also appreciative of the fact that the various teams at Tribal DBB took time out of their busy schedule to accommodate our students’ visit to their office.
