You Yanyan

I am You Yanyan, a 2019 O-Level graduate of San Yu Adventist School. My years at SYAS were some of the most meaningful periods of my life. SYAS is conveniently located, and its modern facilities and well-designed curriculum provided us with a strong foundation for our future studies.

One of the teachers who had the greatest impact on me was Ms. Ho. As a school Prefect, I learned responsibility and leadership under her guidance. Whenever I faced challenges, she was always there to encourage me and offer valuable advice. I am also deeply grateful to Mr. Vincent, who helped build a strong foundation in my English and History. His dedication not only improved my academic performance but also strengthened my ability to learn independently.

Beyond academics, SYAS gave me the opportunity to make friends from many different countries and taught me valuable life lessons both inside and outside the classroom.

Today, I have just graduated with a Bachelor’s degree from Nanyang Technological University, and I will continue to pursue doctoral studies in Materials Science at NTU this August.

Looking back, I am truly grateful for everything SYAS had given me! I hope all my juniors will also become the person they aspire to be!
