Prof. Chew has been extremely supportive and helpful throughout my research journey. I initially struggled with shaping my research idea and even felt that it was not strong enough. However, with his guidance and encouragement, I was able to refine my topic and confidently proceed with my study. He is very patient, knowledgeable, and always willing to guide students step by step. I truly appreciate his dedication and continuous support.
