Aida who graduated with a Bachelor of Education (TESL) from the University of Malaya has always been passionate about teaching and education. Upon graduation, she started her teaching career with Informatics College in Kuala Lumpur, and when marriage brought her to Melaka, she continued teaching at Stamford College Malacca. After a few years, she decided she needed something more challenging and joined the academic staff at Multimedia University and went on to do her Master of Business Administration.

A few years of living in Bangkok after resigning from MMU brought her a new perspective on herself as an educator and as a person. The experience of teaching and helping in a school for Hmong refugee children and volunteering at her children’s school has changed her mindset towards children and education. It gave her a renewed passion.

In 2016, she was looking for something to challenge herself even further, and opportunity presented itself in the form of  Blubricks Melaka, a speech and drama school. Her spirit to continuously challenge herself has equipped her with a vast skillset to educate a vast range of age groups teaching different things from Speech & Drama to IELTS (International English Language Testing System).
