Founders, The Hyve Learning Space

Sim Cheng Yu & Cymbeline Kng

Not your typical tuition centre and proudly so. Sim Cheng Yu and Cymbeline Kng are the Founders of The Hyve Learning Space, Singapore’s first future-ready learning space designed to develop children and youths beyond the classroom. Inspired by the hive, their model of education is rooted in curiosity, collaboration, and growth to empower learners aged 3 to 16 to thrive in both academic and real-world environments.

At The Hyve, students don’t just memorise but they express, create, question, and connect. The duo’s mission began after business school, when they realised that grades could open doors, but confidence, character, and creativity were what truly kept them open. 

Their biggest inspiration? The students themselves. Every moment of growth—big or small—fuels their conviction that learning should be joyful, relational, and deeply human.
