About Heguru Malaysia

Heguru Malaysia has an interesting history. It all began when Ms Yuly Tam, the founder of Heguru Malaysia, was introduced to the brain development programme from Japan in 2008. This programme
does not only changed her perspective towards children development but made a positive difference in the early childhood education field in Malaysia.

Coming from conventional upbringing, Ms Yuly found herself having learning difficulties. She learned slower compared to her peers and this condition affected her academic performance. However, that did not stop her but instead, she worked harder and continued to further her tertiary education in Australia. She completed her double degree in the field of Marketing and Human Resource Management from University of Southern Queensland, Australia. Upon completion of her studies, Ms Yuly started her career in a few corporations where she obtained a strong foundation for her management and entrepreneurship skills.


However, soon she realized it wasn’t her true passion. Alongside her duty as a mother, she fell in love working with children. Later on, she pursued her studies with a diploma in early childhood education. She loved every moment of her being a mother and truly realized this was her passion in life. She finds her work meaningful and glad that she can help children to improve. Then, in 2004, she established a Montessori based nursery with the aim of spending more time with her child. She soon realized that she could provide more to other children. As she experienced learning difficulties herself, she wished to help children to be able to learn faster and easier. She strived to improve and injected a new learning approach in education. This is how Heguru vision started. Part of busy life in Klang Valley, the first “Heguru Education Laboratory (M) Sdn Bhd”, also known as Heguru Malaysia centre opened its doors in April 2009. It took almost one year of preparation for Ms Yuly and her team of experts from various fields before it’s finally opened. Through the years, Heguru has grew with another 4 centres in Malaysia. She believed Heguru teaching and learning approach helps children to reach their potential so they have the ability to face life’s challenges. She feels happy when she sees this tailored made programme has created a unique early childhood education designed to meet the needs of children of all ages and abilities.

What is the HEGL Method?




Studied and rigorously developed by Hirotada and Ruiko Henmi for more than 30 years, this effective early childhood education technique focuses on capitalizing on a child’s ability to absorb information as opposed to the conventional approaches of teaching.

A child’s first few years in school are the most crucial. When their ability to receive and adapt to knowledge is tweaked to the highest possible level, they are able to adapt seamlessly to any aspect of learning in different environments.

The key to this success is “Right Brain Development”. At Heguru, these methods are refined on a daily basis and are aimed at increasing fundamental skills as early as a child’s prenatal or infancy period. Training the “Right Brain” allows a child to develop various cognitive abilities at their own remarkable pace.

Frequently Asked Question

The pace in Heguru classes are too fast And difficult to follow.
At our early childhood education center – Heguru, the pace of the class is carefully varied. We emphasize speed in a Heguru classroom to fully utilize the right brain. To develop it, rhythm training such as flash cards requires high speed. Years of research shows we can stimulate our brains through such training and ultimately encourage quick thinking and an enhanced mental capacity.
My Child Is Fidgety And It Makes Me Concerned.
All children are restless by nature. A child easily loses interest in one thing, and moves to another. However, a child can absorb information even if he/she is not paying attention to the object. Although a child does not seem to be concentrating, he/she is able to read content accurately. It is the responsibility of parents to choose a good learning environment or early childhood education center for children for them to enjoy and pay more attention during lessons.
We Are A Full-Time Working Couple And Don’t Have Time To Look After Our Child’s Learning At Home. Will It Be All Right?
It is important for your child to learn the Heguru Method if you find it hard to educate him or her at home. Since the contents of our classes are very intense, your child can produce excellent results even if he/she only attends the class once a week. Even better, the results produced can be remarkable if parents can take the time to guide their children at home even if the time spent is very brief.
The Achievement Level Heguru Students Are Quite High. I Am Afraid My Child Cannot Keep Up With Them.
All the parents feel the same way. The only reason your child may be behind in a class is because the others have had a head start. Therefore, you should praise your child for each accomplishment in the activities conducted. In 2 months or so, the child will get used to it and enjoy learning at our early childhood education center.
We Are A Full-Time Working Couple And Don’t Have Time To Look After Our Child’s Learning At Home. Will It Be All Right?
We understand early childhood education may seem strange for the parents, especially we start training infant from 6 months old. Some parents would rather raise their children in a more relaxed manner. On the other hand, various studies have concluded that such education bridges the huge gap in cognitive skills when a child becomes older. We encourage parents to open their horizons to increase their child’s potential as they grow and enjoy nurturing the learning foundation for them just like sowing seeds in a field.
I Cannot Help Scolding My Child.
Reprimanding your children is not always the effective solution because the question centers on how you can help improve your child. There has to be some extent of “disciplining” but avoid from using harsh words because by doing that, you may discourage the child from progressing and can cause him or her to eventually lose self-confidence.
