Summary
As a dedicated and experienced Chinese language teacher with a profound passion for education, I have been working in this field for 17 years and possess extensive classroom teaching experience. I deeply care for my students and consistently strive to engage in dialogue rather than confrontation, firmly believing in the principle that teaching and learning are reciprocal processes. This approach has earned me widespread affection and trust from both students and parents. In addition to routine language instruction, I also serve as the Head of the Chinese Curriculum and Lead of the Chinese Language Teaching and Research Group, where I manage and lead a team of teachers. I engage in equitable discussions with my colleagues to address and solve educational challenges together. These experiences have not only enhanced my professional skills in education but also honed my leadership and team collaboration abilities.
