He pioneered an Interdisciplinary Teaching and Learning Curriculum for youth-at-risk at Boys&#8217; Town and has over 86,000 professional hours of service-learning, theatrical, immersive pedagogy experience, and consulting. He has provided pedagogical consultation and curated teaching and learning workshops for the educators of institutions such as Outram Secondary School and EduGrove Mandarin Enrichment Centre. He has also worked with organisations such as Chocz, to train retail staff in retail, service, and hospitality standards. He has authored research papers and has been invited to present them at international, doubleblind, peer-reviewed academic conferences held in Hiroshima, Kyoto, Utrecht, Shanghai, and Singapore. He recently spearheaded an international academic and industrial symposium which brought together keynotes from the University of Oxford, Harvard University, and MIT, together with 27 international and local experts as conference track presenters.<\/p>\r\n<p>Brian is a collector of stories and a weaver of dreams. He is often found traipsing along long, and scenic routes and on his journeys, he documents the multi-faceted vignettes of life. When he is not doing that, he enjoys watching the world pass by, as he savours a cup of coffee in a nondescript coffee stand. In a parallel universe, he is a PhD student of Anthropology at the National University of Singapore and has his coffee freshly brewed from the canteen&#8217;s vending machine.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Research:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Brian&#8217;s research is a comparative study of salient demographics as a result of sustained and intensive fieldwork in the region. He is interested in the reasons why there is an increase of people disaffiliating themselves from formal religion. His research hopes to unpack the hypothesis that partaking of education in a religious School setting, for example in the Christian missionary schools, would serve as catalysts for long-term sustained religious affiliation in adulthood. <strong>Education<\/strong>:<br \/><br \/>2012<br \/>National University of Singapore<br \/>Master of Arts (By Research) 2008<br \/>National University of Singapore<br \/>Bachelor of Arts 2nd Class Honours (Upper) in Theatre Studies 2019<br \/>Harvard University<br \/>Harvard Certificate in Teaching and Learning Strategies for Higher Education<br \/>Derek Bok Center for Teaching and Learning, HarvardX 2010<br \/>Trinity College London<br \/>Trinity Guildhall Foundation Teaching Certificate (Distinction)<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Teaching Experience:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>SC2208 Baby or No Baby: Population Dynamics at a Crossroads<br \/>TS2238\/SSA2218 Singapore Film: Performance of Identity<br \/>TS1101E\u00a0 Introduction to Theatre and Performance <strong>Contact Info<\/strong><br \/>Email ID:\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:brian.bartholomew.tan@gmail.com\">brian.bartholomew.tan@gmail.com<\/a><br \/>Linkedin: www.linkedin.com\/in\/yh-brian-tan<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tan Yeow Hui, Brian Ph.D. (Anthropology) Research Interest: Religion, Catholicism, Education, Social Networks, Social Histories Brian has had the honour of researching, lecturing, and tutoring in academic institutions of repute such as the National University of Singapore and LASALLE College of the Arts.
