Share In conjunction with Mother’s Day, Prestige Malaysia talks to three exceptional mothers who work alongside their daughters – as business partners, invaluable mentors and best friends. Anne Tham, Erica Tham & Grace Tham Anne Tham, Erica Tham & Grace Tham. Anne is group CEO of ACE EdVenture, working alongside her daughters Erica and Grace. The journey began in the ‘90s, when Anne, then a college lecturer, noticed many post- secondary students struggling to thrive in a higher education setting. The biggest challenge appeared to be that many students struggled to coherently form and present arguments, quite aside from their language proficiency. Writing academic papers was another area of significant difficulty. Realising that there was an urgent need for a system that would facilitate some sort of reform and remediation, Anne opened an English tuition centre in 1995.
