Thanks to the support of the Chinese community, we have organized a series of seminars at the Riverbend Library. I taught a medical English seminar in July, and a pronunciation seminar with my friend Stephanie Torchia in August, and a TOEFL iBT class in September this year.

In the past, I have also experienced the same pain of unclear pronunciation and inability to express ourselves in the heath care environment. I understand how much we need these necessary surviving skills in Canada, a place we have planted seeds for the future for our family, our children, and ourselves.

My dream is one day I can devote all my life to teaching and helping our Chinese immigrants and students to achieve their fullest potential in this land, called Canada. |
