One thing that you would like to share with us OR something that you like about the school
Working here as a Chinese teacher is my first job. As a brand-new teacher, what I want to share is that I have gained so much support from my colleagues, especially the Chinese Department. Without their support, I couldn’t have settled down so quickly. I felt nervous when I stepped into the to classroom at the beginning of last semester, but now I feel proud and confident being a part of SISHK.
