By Li Siyu
On May 21, the students and foreign teachers came to the English corner as usual. The foreign teachers present were Mr. Leck Wall, Mr. Sean McHugh and Mr. Gerard Brent.
Mr. Sean McHugh introduced America in many ways. A number of pictures being showed, he covered politics, economy, military affairs, architecture and music of America and something that can stand for the US, such as eagle and oak tree. Through the detailed explanation of Mr. Sean McHugh, students knew more about the US.
Mr. Gerard Brent began with the topic “The most important decision you have made”. He shared his own college life, which encouraged more students to join the discussion. In addition, he gave some learning suggestions to students. When asked how to adapt to the life of studying abroad, Mr. Gerard Brent said that students had better find out something they love and concentrate on so as to overcome difficulties and enjoy overseas life.
English Corner exposed teachers and students to the pleasure of communication apart from a chance to understand each other better.
