Our Senior Leadership Team, experts in their respective fields and united by a passion for the Teach For Malaysia mission, collaborates with the Team For Malaysia steam to guide strategic decision-making and ensure the organization remains committed to its mission and core values.
Soon Seng joined the inaugural Teach For Malaysia Cohort in 2012, and like many other Fellows and Alumni, the experience had a profound impact on his worldview.
He was deeply moved by the challenges faced by students growing up in low-income communities and how it was the lack of opportunities, rather than the lack of ability, that prevented students from realising their desired potential.
He holds a degree in Management and Marketing (Murdoch University) and a Post-Graduate Diploma in Education (Universiti Utara Malaysia).
He envisions a holistic education system that not only develops students’ academics, but also their social, emotional, physical, spiritual, and leadership skills, in order to thrive in the 21st century.
James joined the Teach For Malaysia Sarawak Cohort in 2015, and like many educators, have great ideas and intiatives for students. Despite having these ideas, James saw that teachers often lack proper support, funding, and guidance to implement them in the classroom. Therefore, he took up the role in training and coaching teachers as an LDO.
He obtained a degree in Marketing (Ohio University) Magna cum laude and a Post-Graduate Diploma in Education (Universiti Utara Malaysia). His vision of enabling and empowering people in the education system to create sustainable change fuels his leadership and commitment to the Program Duta Guru.

In TFM, we place equal importance on both achievements and our core values. As a values-driven organisation – the deep belief in the mission, the pursuit of excellence for a good cause, the desire to collaborate because we know we cannot achieve our goals alone, and “doing the right thing” – are the backbone of our results and impact.
Bahagian Kewangan dan Operasi di TFM mempunyai 3 buah pasukan atau unit (Unit Strategi Bakat, Unit Kewangan dan Unit Operasi) yang berperanan untuk memastikan organisasi beroperasi secara telus dan efisien, dan mereka juga bertanggungjawab dalam mewujudkan budaya kerja yang kondusif dan suasana yang membolehkan kakitangan memberikan usaha yang terbaik dalam tugas mereka.
The Growth Team comprises Marketing and Partnership Development (Fundraising) teams. They are on a mission to grow a movement of champions to drive scale in the number of Fellows we place in the Fellowship program to impact students, as well as to ensure the sustainability of TFM’s impact.
The Fellowship Team comprises Training & Support (T&S), Talent Acquisition (TA), and Alumni and Stakeholder Engagement (SE) teams.
TA recruits Fellows to join the Fellowship Programme and T&S develops Fellows to be transformational and impactful leaders who work to change the life opportunities and outcomes for Malaysian students. The Alumni team works closely with Alumni who completed the 2 years programme while SE works on strategic engagements with key stakeholders of the education ecosystem.
