清华大学归国才女 许颖俐返校感恩师长

韩江之光——许颖俐，现就读于北京清华大学经济与金融系，趁著假期回到母校探望師長，並感謝韓江的栽培。
作为2021年毕业的优秀毕业生，在校期间曾在商科统考成绩中大放异彩，毕业后也不负所望获得了清华大学的录取通知书。江美利校长也亲自颁布象征着韩江之光殊荣的锡器奖盘以示鼓励。作为韩江之光，她是同学们的模范榜样，這次的回校探望也让學生們得以更加了解这位归国才女。
回顾过去的校园岁月
许颖俐感慨道，已经离开校园大约2年的时间，心中也无比怀念这个逗留了6年，承载着无数欢乐回忆的故地，同时也想探望曾经细心教导和陪伴她成長的老师们，因此才会在回国时特意抽空前来再次拜访。
时隔两年步行于曾经的校园，她感到既熟悉又陌生，有一种物是人非的感慨。时过境迁，有些老师已经离开了校园有了其他的发展，许多熟悉面孔的朋友们也不在原来的班级里打闹。
这次回校的自己更像是校园故事中的旁观者，让她有了一段十分新奇的体验。
学习态度与秘诀
对于学术上所获得的成就，她認為学生们必须创立一项目标，并全力专注于自己的目标奋进，勤能补拙，唯有秉持着专心致志的学习态度，才会获得理想中的佳绩。
她也回忆起当年无比看重中学生涯的统考，为了考上心仪的大学，通过努力进入了成绩要求相当严苛的清华大学。
许颖俐也向学弟妹们无私分享了自己在校期间的一些学习心得及秘诀。她认为考生需要将课本的内容进行完善的学习，并把考题研究透彻，把知识融会贯通，才能获取理想的成绩。
在母校求学期间，她表示自己十分有幸获得了专业老师们的悉心教导及栽培，他们的关心以及支持也在未来无形中成为了她的精神支柱。她十分感谢校方为同学们毕业后深造的领域提供的诸多支持与宝贵的机会。
再次回到熟悉的母校，她无比感谢在这里的学习生涯，正是因为韓江提供了如此宽广的学习及发展的平台，以及更多的与外国友人交流的机会，才给予了她如今能够站在大舞台上的勇气。
追梦遇到的困难
回忆起当初决定报读清华大学的那年，她想起父母坚决的反对，认为中国与我國相隔甚远。而历经了为期两年的说服与商讨，父母也毅然支持了她的理想。
父母的支持为她带来了无限的动力，让她感受被认可的喜悦，这也造就了优秀的这一位韩江之光。虽在出国前仍存有许多经济上的问题有待处理，但她的外国求学之路算是拉开了序章。她申请国外大学的过程及所包含的步骤可谓是既繁又杂，自己也经常为此而焦头烂额，幸而获得了校方及老师们的帮助，解决了诸多难题。
选择经济与金融系的原因
在得知自己获得了清华大学的录取通知书的那一瞬间，至今都令许颖俐记忆深刻，一瞬间的不可置信到反复确认信息，为她带来了如梦如幻的体验，更有种梦想成真的激动。
她感到无比庆幸当初选择了攻读清华，但其实在过去并没有非常明确的目标，自己的目标更聚焦的是“中国留学”和“金融”这两项指标。选择这一科系首先是因为发现自己对金融行业有着浓厚的兴趣，二也是因为了解到中国有许多的机会和机遇想亲自去见识。选择经济与金融系也是因为这是统考商科中十分广泛的领域，恰巧中国近年以来在这一领域颇有一番成就，因此机缘巧合与努力之下便报考了清华大学。
异乡奋斗的故事
谈及自己如今的生活，许颖俐也讲述了独自一人在异乡奋斗的故事。清华大学是中国乃至世界公认的一流学府。尽管她已经十分努力，但依然会被周围同学们的努力及聪慧而感到压力，却也正是因为他们的存在让她能够从中寻求到鼓励，以他们的自律性为榜样，奋起追击。在如此高压的环境中学习，她也强调了适当放松自己的重要性，同时也可向周围的师长好友寻求帮助来平衡与减轻压力。
除了学习，她也时常惊叹于中国的人文历史。中国可谓是地大物又博，各个地域都有自己独有的家乡美食，其中也让她感受到了不少中国与我國的文化差异。同时，初到异乡求学时也时常被四季变换所带来的景色之美所震撼，对眼前陌生的白雪皑皑感到惊艳。
作为世界四大古文明的国度，身在北京的许颖俐也有幸亲临许多历史建筑物及场地，並十分惊喜能够见证历史的轨迹。这些美景与回忆是她在求学之路上所收获的意外之喜。
留学的收获
在外地就读了许久，这段磨练的经验不仅仅让许颖俐变得更加独立及自律，也让她学会了许多有趣的历史及外国文化，收获满满。
她非常感谢母校韩江中学对自己的悉心培养。韩江除了拥有专业的师资、先进的教学设备，也给予了学生们许多发挥的机会和平台。更重要的是，这里有一群有理想、积极向上、为梦想而奋斗的同学们，在这样的校园和氛围之下，让她更有动力进行着日复一日的学习，有序地向目标稳定前进。
对人生中的恩师及朋友们，许颖俐由衷地感激老师们多年的教导，无论是从学习或人生的都曾陪伴在那个年幼的她身旁，不断地鼓励和指引她找到自己的目标，成为现在的自己。
此外，她也想对中学的朋友们说一句 “好久不见！”，真挚的情感流露令人动容。
感激父母的选择
她也很感谢父母当初为她选择了独中统考这一教育体制。统考教育是她顺利进入中国大学的重要助力之一，通过董总和学校，她不仅可以有更多的机会去了解中国内地的诸多大学，也能更加轻松地申请，适应和接轨中国的教育。
对于尚在本校就读的学弟妹们，她送上了最真诚的祝福，希望学弟妹们能够确立自己的方向，在求学的道路上无需过分地焦虑，稳步向心目中的理想迈进，在学业上更上一层楼。
对未来的期许
在不远的将来，许颖俐希望可以投身到自己专业及感兴趣的领域，并有所成就。
在工作方面的选择，由于她父母亲人朋友都在我國，自己确实曾经有考虑过回国发展。不过如今也考虑在中国或者新加坡这两个金融行业更加成熟的国家继续发展，但目前尚未正式决定。
许颖俐希望能够成为“有能力”的人，有能力实现目标、成为一个更好的自己；有能力以微薄之力影响和帮助身边的人；有能力，有选择的机会去做想做的事情和目标，以及决定不会为了一些现实因素而动摇。她希望能够永远不忘初心，在未来继续进步及沉淀，并期望能够找到心仪的实习工作。
她再次感谢母校把代表着韩江之光殊荣的锡器奖盘表揚她。如今发光发热的她以韩江为荣，未來韩江也能够以她为傲！

Equipping Students with Survival Skills: Han Chiang High School Organises Life Camp to Cultivate Students’ Self-reliance

“Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.” — Mahatma Gandhi
On January 20, 2024, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Penang Youth Development Corporation (PYDC) conducted a life camp at Han Chiang High School to equip participants with essential survival skills. The event aims to cultivate students’ self-reliance, teamwork, and problem-solving abilities.
A total of 40 participants including students from Han Chiang High School, Jit Sin High School and volunteers from PYDC, engaged in activities such as knot tying, outdoor cooking, crafting small tools, map skills, obstacle crossing, and understanding Morse codes. The day-long intensive training program concluded at 5.30 p.m., leaving participants with enjoyable and enriching experiences as they embarked on their journey home.
At eight in the morning, the teachers divided the students into eight teams and gave a quick rundown of the activities they would be participating in. First, they had to tie knots. Specifically, they learned how to make a reef knot, used to bind bandages. Following that, they had a quick break and went for lunch at the canteen. Second, since building campfires and cooking in the backcountry is a crucial survival skill, they were taught how to do so. Over the fire, they grilled chicken and made eggs.
They began eating lunch at the canteen at 12:30 p.m. As the participants share experiences and create new friendships over a substantial lunch, utensil clatter and laughter reverberate throughout the space. The attendees had to learn about compass-bearing after enjoying the warming food. They gained helpful skills by learning how to travel through woodlands. The pupils start building camp gadgets, or buildings created at camp out of sticks and stings, at 2:30 pm. The kids tried a lot before coming up with an impressive camp device, because, as they say, practice makes perfect. Participants learn how to foster teamwork among themselves through this activity. Lastly, participants get to learn how to use walkie-talkies for communication. Walkie-talkie comes in handy when you are in a low-signal area. Therefore, learning this skill is crucial.
The closing ceremony is held around 4.45 pm. Together, the participants cleaned up the mess. Before ending, the camp organisers, Mr Goh and Ms Ong delivered a speech, believing that participants had gained knowledge and wonderful experiences throughout the entire camp. Finally, at 5.30 pm, the Survival Quest Day Camp had come to an end. Participants went home.
Students’ Opinion About the Camp
Yeoh Zi Yu, an active participant from PYDC shared her motivation to acquire new skills through enrollment in the programme. In the course, Zi Yu found the tie knot activity particularly captivating as it provided valuable insights into bandaging techniques for assisting injured individuals. Zi Yu commends the scouts for their willingness to assist without reservation, expressing genuine delight about being part of the camp. She looks forward to acquiring additional skills in future camps and events.
Tan Yen Ying, a spirited student from Han Chiang High School, enthusiastically shared her remarkable experience participating in this program. She described the event as an immersive blend of education and hands-on activities, with the culinary segment emerging as a standout highlight. Yen Ying vividly conveyed the newfound skills and confidence she acquired, illustrating how the camp became a catalyst for her personal growth. Yen Ying also emphasised the camp’s distinctive nature, urging others to consider joining in the future. She highlighted not only the expansion of her knowledge but also the cultivation of lasting memories and connections.
A volunteer from PYDC named Hiew Qi Ying joined this programme to accompany her friend. By doing that, she gained some new knowledge and learned new skills. For example, she was able to make basic knots and gadgets; she even learned how to cook by roasting chicken on a campfire her team prepared. She also faced some troubles as she was worried about letting her team down since she didn’t have any scouting experience. Moreover, she felt she had quite an exciting time at the programme by meeting and interacting with new friends, mastering new techniques and building teamwork. Besides that, she befriended an Indian girl called Asmitha by becoming her translator as she didn’t know Malay or Chinese, making that the most memorable part of the day.
Other than that, Eng E-Jean from Jit Sin High School participated in the programme because of encouragement from her school. She was particularly excited to learn backwoods cooking as she thinks it is an essential skill to know when surviving in the wild. Furthermore, she described the details of making a campfire and ways to handle the fire. However, she felt that communication during the programme was challenging since there were different ethnicities with different spoken languages. Although that was a problem, she solved it by encouraging everyone to speak in English so everyone would understand. She also learned the meaningful value of teamwork and cooperation through discussing and separating members to do tasks when doing group activities. In addition, she was very proud to represent her school to partake in this programme and wishes to teach her newly learnt skills to her friends at school. She highly recommends others to join this kind of programme as it is very beneficial and fun.

韩江日新学子们齐聚一堂 一同体验PYDC生活营

为了培养学生们的自力更生、团队合作和解决问题的能力，并与志愿者们充分掌握侦察和生存的基本技能，槟城青年发展机构(PYDC)组织于2024年1月20日(星期六)早上8时至下午5时在韩江中学举办了一场生活营。共有40位分别来自韩江中学和日新国中的男女童军、圣约翰救伤队和少年军学生及PYDC组织的志愿者参与了生活营。
这项强化培训计划包括打绳结技巧、野外煮食、小工具的制作、地图技能、障碍跨越和理解密码的活动，让参与者们受益匪浅。
活动主办方负责人之一的翁靖锶表示，活动意义是能够提升学生之间的合作精神、领导以及解决问题的能力。这样有趣的活动应该时常举办，让学生们有更多的机会亲自动手完成所布置的任务，而不只是单单依赖看视频学习。
她提到，活动时把参与学生们分配到不同组别，是为了让他们能够借此机会认识新朋友。虽然起初会比较隔阂，但在种种活动的磨合下，同学们很快熟悉彼此并互相合作完成任务。虽然有不同种族的同学们，但彼此之间都没有文化差异而有矛盾现象，反而互相包容，让人欣慰。
韩江中学负责带队的陈添祥老师对活动给予很好的评价，通过各方的支持和协作，活动取得了巨大的成功。参与者们不仅享受了极大的乐趣，还获得了全新的生存技能和知识，如：打结、生火、摩尔斯电码等实用的技能。参与者们在教练的指导下表现出色，努力发挥出最佳的表现，并在小组中积极互助、相互支持。学校因此有必要鼓励更多学生参与，以让更多的学生能够从中获益。
本校学生陈彦萤也表示，参加生活营所获得的经历非凡，这是教育和实践活动完美融合的体验，其中烹饪活动更是成为十分突出的亮点。让她获得新技能的喜悦和自信，成为成长的催化剂。她强调生活营非常有着独特性，不仅开阔了知识储备，更是学会了通过联系法获得持久记忆的技能，鼓励同学们往后应参与这个生活营。
来自日新国中的张语桐同学表示，会选择参加这个活动是希望可以学习到在团体活动中学习不到的东西。同时也希望能够结交到来自其他学校的朋友。在本次的生活营，她学习到了很多关于童军的生活技能。
日新国中也带来了不同大小的木柴作为烹煮食物环节的主要燃料。张语桐表示，最难忘的体验是利用天然材料起火煮食，可以学习到野外起火的技巧。虽然只有不到10个小时的参与体验，但很高兴能和新队友们合作完成任务。若还有机会，依然会参与类似的活动，并能够学到更多的知识，创造更多有趣和珍贵的回忆。
来自PYDC的志愿者Anis Solihah Bt Mohd. Hafiz也说体验相当的不错，主办方应该常常举办这样的活动，让学生们有机会在轻松的氛围中更深入学习童军知识和许多有趣的新事物，给学生们带来许多的好处。在当天的生活营中印象最深刻的是学习一些从未尝试过的知识和体验，比如篝火烹饪，这项特别的经历是让人难以忘怀。
来自PYDC组织的参与者杨子雨也表示，通过活动学习到许多全新的技能。尤其绳子打结引人入胜，因为有价值的绷带技巧及见解能为受伤者提供协助。同时，童子军们乐意毫不保留地提供帮助的热情，她期待在未来的生活营活动中能够获得更多额外的技能。

Where Talent Meets Success: Han Chiang High School Prodigies Showcase Exceptional Project to Prime Minister Dato’ Seri Anwar bin Ibrahim

Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence win championships. – Michael Jordan
Three students from Han Chiang High School, namely Ong Chong Yao (SE22), Quah Yi Jie (SE22), and Mok Zi Xuan (SE21), showcased their project at the recent exhibition held at Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM). Their innovative project, the Smart Home A-Eye Bin, gained significant attention, and they had the distinct honour of presenting it to the Prime Minister of Malaysia, Dato’ Seri Anwar bin Ibrahim, on the 16th of January 2024. They were interviewed about their path to glory when notified about their success.
Before their impressive exhibition at Universiti Putra Malaysia, these three talented students had already established themselves as champions in the 2023 Intel Competition. The journey to success was not without its challenges, as they dedicated themselves to refining and perfecting their project. Balancing their academic commitments, they often devote their precious time to their creation.
Amid preparations, the team faced a critical moment during the Intel Competition when their project encountered a malfunction during testing. Undeterred, Ong Chong Yao, one of the team members, exhibited unwavering determination. Recalling the intensity of the situation, he revealed that he sacrificed a night’s sleep to address the bug, ultimately ensuring the project’s functionality.
The team entered the 2023 Intel Competition with a mindset focused on delivering a smooth presentation. Winning was not a foreseen outcome, and they were pleasantly surprised when they were announced as winners. Little did they anticipate that their journey from a successful competition would extend to a presentation to the Prime Minister of Malaysia, making this experience even more remarkable.
The opportunity to present their project to the Prime Minister left all three students, Ong Chong Yao, Quah Yi Jie, and Mok Zi Xuan, with an overwhelming sense of awe and gratitude. They collectively expressed that this experience felt like a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, acknowledging the rarity of having the chance to showcase their creation to the highest echelon of political leadership. Grateful for the opportunity to share their innovative project with the Prime Minister, the students recognised the exceptional nature of this opportunity, marking a milestone in their academic and innovative journey. 
Moreover, they were very proud of their presentation as they thought their hard work had paid off. They exclaimed that they felt a sense of accomplishment after coming a long way, presenting to the Malaysia Prime Minister. While they are proud of themselves, they acknowledge areas of potential growth. One of their team members, Quah Yi Jie, highlighted that he often stutters during presentations due to a lack of confidence. However, during this particular event, this did not happen often.
They claimed that their coach, Mr Yap didn’t interfere with their exhibition, as he wanted to develop their independent skills that would be essential in their future. But when the team had issues that needed to be sorted out, Mr Yap was always an unwavering pillar of support. Investing his time and effort, he became a crucial figure in ensuring the team’s success, helping them achieve the impossible.
In offering guidance to aspiring students, they emphasize the importance of actively participating in competitions. They stress that making mistakes is an unavoidable aspect of the learning process and a critical component of personal growth. According to them, the journey towards improvement and success involves embracing challenges and learning from errors. Additionally, the trio expresses heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Wah and Ms. Peggy, acknowledging their pivotal role in enhancing the team’s fluency in English during presentations. Without Dr. Wah and Ms. Peggy, the students believe they wouldn’t have become this impressive.
The Project– the Smart Home A-Eye Bin
Their project– the Smart Home A-Eye Bin, was a rubbish bin that can automatically solve your cache using artificial intelligence. It was sorted into three categories as of right now, which are paper, plastic and metal. Ong Chong Yao, one of the team members, had addressed the deficient waste management near his house, which bothered him to see all the mixed-up trash that was difficult to recycle. That inspired him to start a project and to promote an effective way to sort out the rubbish. Therefore, he and his other team members decided to create the Smart Home A-Eye Bin to solve the problem of improper disposal.

未来科技之星，展现科技创新风采 韩中3学子向首相展示智能家居垃圾桶

本校三名学生于2024年1月16日，参与了在马来西亚博特拉大学(UPM)所举办的科技展览会。这三名学生分别是王崇耀(SE22)、柯奕杰(SE22)以及莫紫璇(SE21)。他们的作品，智能家居A-Eye垃圾桶(Smart Home A-Eye Bin)曾在全国科技比赛中夺得冠军宝座。在此次的展览会，他们有幸把这个作品呈现给我国的首相，拿督斯里安华•依布拉欣。这对于他们来说，是个莫大的荣幸。
他们在采访中表示，能够取得今天的成就并不容易。在筹备过程中，他们需要突破逆境，克服种种困难。他们也追求完美，因此不断地改良机械和编码，花费了不少心血和时间。身为高中的学生，正是课业繁重的时候，因此他们需要同时兼顾学业和比赛，这无疑是件艰难困苦的事。在比赛前夕，他们的作品突然出现故障。王崇耀同学表示，自己一度想要放弃，但想到自己和队友一直以来所付出的努力，他决定重振旗鼓，整顿好心情之后就埋头苦干，竭尽所能地修复机器。他这一晚彻夜未眠，只为了把机器修复好。当然，皇天不负有心人，他的努力也换来了回报。他不仅把机器修复好，还让团队成功在比赛中夺得冠军。
他们参加的比赛是由英特尔(Intel)所举办的全国科技比赛。起初，他们只想在比赛中收获经验，从来没有想过会夺得冠军。因此，当结果公布时他们感到很惊讶也很高兴，因为冠军会成为他们的囊中之物完全是他们的意料之外。而有机会把作品呈现给我国首相让他们感到相当自豪也很惊喜，毕竟这是许多人求之不得的机会啊！他们的作品，智能家居A-Eye垃圾桶，是个利用人工智能来自动解决垃圾分类问题的垃圾桶。目前，它能够分类三个类别，即纸张、塑料和金属。团队成员之一的王崇耀同学关注到他家附近的垃圾管理问题，看到难以回收、混杂在一起的垃圾令他感到不安。这激发了他创作一个能够提倡有效地处理垃圾分类问题的机器。因此，他和其他团队成员决定创建智能家居A-Eye垃圾桶，以解决不当处理垃圾的问题。
此次把作品呈现给首相的经历，让他们感到无法抑制的敬畏和感激之情。三名学生共同表示，这次经历是人生中唯一一次的机会，因为有机会向最高层的政治领导展现自己的创作是多么的难能可贵。他们非常感激有机会与首相分享他们呕心沥血之作，学生们知道这是他们成长生涯中的一个重要时刻。他们为自己的作品感到非常自豪，认为他们的辛勤付出终于得到了回报。他们自豪地说，在马来西亚首相面前，呈现自己付出许多心血的作品，让他们获得满满的成就感。虽然他们为自己感到骄傲，但他们也承认还有进步的空间。其中一位团员，柯奕杰强调，他在演讲中经常因缺乏自信而口吃、说话不流利。然而，这次的经历让他重拾信心，克服了从前缺乏自信的问题。
他们声称，他们的教练，叶进博老师，想要培养他们未来必不可少的独立技能，因此没有干涉他们的筹备过程。但当团队遇到瓶颈时，叶教练总是会提供帮助，投入他的时间和精力，默默地给予他们支持和鼓励。他们坦言，叶教练是确保团队能够成功的关键人物，帮助他们实现了不可能的任务。三人也对华子慧博士和Ms. Peggy表达了由衷的感激之情，两人在提高团队英语演讲的流利度方面发挥了关键作用。他们坚信，没有老师们的帮助，他们不会有如此卓越的成就。对于未来想要参加此类比赛的学生，他们强调了积极参与比赛的重要性。他们认为，犯错是学习过程中不可避免的一部分，也是一个人成长的关键，通往进步和成功的旅程也涉及接受挑战，并从错误中学习。

The Journey of Chris – Embracing Challenges, Friendship, and Knowledge for a Better World

Chris is a Han Chiang High School student who graduated in 2002, but his heart still misses Han Chiang High School. During Han Chiang High School’s big flood in 2018, Chris stepped up to the cause and gathered many Thai students and friends to donate RM2,000 to our beloved flooded school. Since leaving, Chris managed to accomplish many impressive achievements through hard work. Over the next few years, Chris will be pursuing his PhD, but before leaving, he visited Han Chiang High School to say his goodbyes while reliving his memories and seeing what has changed.
Given the rare opportunity, an interview was held with Chris to learn about his experiences as a foreigner and the challenges and achievements that made Chris who he is today. Language, as we all know, is the key to communication, but a new language isn’t easy to grasp. As a foreigner from Thailand, Chris struggled to learn Chinese at first. Nevertheless, Chris gave his all to pick up Chinese through frequent studying and completing Chinese exercises. In the end, Chris’ hard work paid off, as he can speak Chinese fluently. Therefore, Chris can easily communicate with foreigners from various countries. Besides that, Chris used his Chinese knowledge to pass the Chulalongkorn University entrance exam.
With language comes friendship. If there’s anything Chris values from his years in Han Chiang High School, it’s knowing his schoolmates, some of whom today are his lifelong friends. This strong bonding was apparent, especially when Chris asked them to contribute to his flood donation during the big Han Chiang High School flood. Since Chris departed from Han Chiang High School, he has revisited Penang a few times to relive and enjoy Penang’s famous hawker food, culture and shopping.
Chris was set on gathering funds to donate to help Han Chiang High School with the flood, as it has a special place in his heart. Although Chris faced some difficulties, such as being unable to contact his friends because they had gone a long time without contact, he still tried to find a way to help. Chris found a small group of friends to spread the word and eventually contacted enough people to gather RM2,000 of funds. After Chris dropped out of Han Chiang High School, he continued his high school education in Bangkok. Other than that, he used his knowledge gained from Han Chiang High School to excel in university.
Many people helped Chris in his journey to success, especially his parents and teacher, to which he expressed gratitude. Chris’ parents sent him to Han Chiang High School in the first place and gave him affirmation and encouragement during the hard times to become the best version of himself. Despite Chris’ teacher being strict, she taught him a lot of useful knowledge and played a big part in his good academics. Moreover, she motivated Chris to work hard even after failure.
Success is due to our stretching to the challenges of life, so Chris has faced many difficulties ever since dropping out, and most importantly adapted based on the struggle to solve it and thrive. Chris’ main problem is putting too much pressure on himself. For instance, there was once Chris got below 50 on a science test. The devastation caused Chris to stop eating and almost get sick. Chris was obsessed with getting good scores, as he wanted to make his parents proud. Nonetheless, Chris had good friends who encouraged him to stay positive and try harder next time.
As a result of Chris’ success currently, he sees himself graduating from his PhD study and hopes to come back to Chulalongkorn University as a lecturer in 5 years. Chris wants to teach more challenging modules, such as pronunciation or linguistic theory and wishes for his knowledge to benefit the country.
Last but not least, Chris gave some helpful advice to all Han Chiang High School students. Life nowadays is more challenging for young students with lots of technology which they have to grasp. Students must learn to use technology appropriately and effectively to further enhance their capabilities, and absorb good knowledge. In particular, students need to use their judgement to differentiate good and bad. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be beneficial.
Greatness is not easy to achieve without consistency and hard work, yet Chris has done it. Chris has many amazing qualities that are worth all students to learn and pick up. That way, students can become a contributing member of society.
