Our Story
We commenced our journey with a humble beginning when our founder, Mr Hendra Wong, started teaching chemistry for students in Singapore in 2012. One year after graduating from Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore, with a Bachelor’s Degree (Honours) in Chemistry and Biological Chemistry with Minor in Entrepreneurship, he found his dream to create a positive and nurturing environment that motivates students to develop an inquisitive mind at varying stages of cognitive development. Based on his experience in achieving Gold Medal, Absolute Winner and Best Theory awards in Chemistry Olympiad (OSN Kimia), he deeply believes in the power of interest and passion in his students’ learning progress.
Mr Hendra Wong moulded ProfLab’s strategic teaching methodology which focuses on a customized educational approach towards each student’s strengths, needs and learning style. As the former President of Indonesian Students’ Association in Singapore (PPI Singapura), he understands that each student is unique, talented and will be successful in his/her own way.
Just like the quote by John Lubbock, “If we succeed in giving the love of learning, the learning itself is sure to follow.”

They plan and prepare thoroughly to make sure that everything works specifically for all students and make learning more enjoyable. Our teachers don’t just teach, but also coach, mentor and motivate all students to maximise their potential.
Accessible Location & Comfortable Learning Environment
Our centre is conveniently located at Mall of Indonesia (MOI), the heart of Kelapa Gading, Jakarta Utara. Only a short distance away from many International Schools, it is a vibrant and enjoyable shopping destination for both students and parents. Located at Ruko Italian Walk Blok L-17, Mall of Indonesia (MOI), our centre features sheltered drop off and pick up points at lobby 5 & 6 and covered parking slots. All our classrooms and reception area are carefully and elegantly designed to provide a comfortable learning environment for all students. We take care of the comfort of seating arrangement, lighting, air conditioners and all learning facilities.
Customised Teaching & Individual Attention
We adopt customised teaching methodologies to suit each student’s needs and learning style. This allows our teachers to give individual attention based on each student’s strengths and weaknesses. Difficult and complicated concepts are explained in a clear and easy-digestible manner. Each student is mentored by his/her teachers to understand both basic and advanced concepts. He/She is also trained to master the skills in answering exam questions efficiently with the right keywords and presentation.
Fun, Interesting & Engaging Lessons
Are the lessons boring? Nope, our lessons are fun, interesting and engaging. We believe in the power of passion and interest as the main driving forces in each student’s positive learning journey. We encourage class interaction so the students will participate comfortably and they won’t be shy to ask questions when in doubt. Our classes aren’t just about lessons. It’s also about the new experience that students gain which will shape the way they study and interact with their peers.
Detailed Lesson Plans and Continuous Feedback
Our teachers create detailed lesson plans and give out notes and worksheets. Tests are also given to students to monitor their progress. We conduct extra classes, revision classes and crash courses before the examination period. Every teacher provides continuous feedback to each student to boost their confidence and inspire them to work harder. Our teachers also make sure that when students make mistakes, they explain it carefully without sounding insincere or scolding.
High Quality Learning Materials
We provide our students high quality learning materials based on the latest syllabus. The materials are simple, summarised and easy to understand. They are relevant and thoughtfully structured to allow students familiarise the commonly tested questions.
