Comments from Keith
Dean of FTs of International Department
First and foremost, I’d like to congratulate each and every one of the participants of this excellent competition. Having heard carefully listened to all the speeches, it’s very clear just how much time and effort you’ve put into researching and preparing your presentations, so I’d like to commend you all on your efforts and dedication to improving and enlarging your vocabularies.
I think I speak for the other foreign teachers who’ve had the privilege of traveling to China and living in this amazing country when I say how fortunate we feel to experience China first-hand. We have seen the richness of Chinese traditional festivals and culture, but most people around the world might never have this tremendous opportunity. It’s for this reason that I want to express how wonderful I think this competition is because it’s a chance for Chinese students to share the long, rich, history of traditional Chinese culture with the world.
It’s also important for all of you to continue working and improving your English so that you can one day go out into the wider world and communicate these important stories about Chinese culture across the globe.
Thank you!
