PTET Celebrates Long-Service Physics Tutor Set for Retirement - 2.3.2017

Mr Chu Ing Chin, or affectionately known as Mr Chu, by colleagues and students, past and present, has been teaching in Brunei since 1996 for a collective total of 21 years. About a decade were spent teaching Physics at Sufri Bolkiah Secondary School, Tutong before he joined the then newly-initiated sixth form centre in Tutong district, Sayyidina Othman Secondary school in 2005 and subsequently moved to its present site, the Tutong Sixth Form Centre (PTET) in late 2012.

After spending over two decades of educating Bruneian students on Physics, Mr Chu has experienced how the face of education has changed in recent years. Not only will his subject expertise be highly missed, his mentorship, camaraderie and optimism have been equally invaluable to all colleagues.

However, in an emotional afternoon of farewell between colleagues, students and him, messages poured in well in advance from his former students who are now successful in various careers including health sciences, engineers and more importantly, teachers as well.

BruDirect and Borneo Bulletin covered this story.

Below are excerpts of messages from his former students, some of whom have now become colleagues, who continues to benefit from his wisdom and advice after many years of teaching.
