I guess, when I read the list below, you would have an impress on the specially good professional sensitivity and the high work efficiency of the college of International Education at Beijing Institute of Economic Management.
-- May 9, 2014, Mrs. Zeng Qiang who is a retired researcher of Beijing Institute of Economic Management attended my first class and recommended me to her institute.
-- May 16, 2014, Mrs. Xue Hui Qing who is the Director of Student Center of the School of International Cultural Exchanges at Beijing Institute of Economic Management attended my second class in the classroom and in the part, to see how I teach students to read, recite and to sing a Chinese poem, then to go out of the door to paint from the nature.
-- May 19 or 20, 2014, Mrs. Xue Hui Qing called me and they would like to invite me to give a lecture to their students from France, America, Indonesia and Korea on May 28, 2014.
-- May 23, 2014, Mrs. Xue Hui Qing picked up me to have a talking in her office and to see their classroom and we.
-- May 24, 2014, we changed the lecture time to be May 30, 2014 because my school will organize students to have a painting from the nature on May 28, 2014. Our school informed students about this 2 weeks ago, but our monitor forgot to inform me because I came back China in March so that many new students have not known me yet.
-- May 30, 2014, our event worked very well, the only pity was the students from France and America could not attend because they had the other lessons.
Then base on the communication over, June 24, Ms. Yang Guang - Associate Dean of the College of International Education and I had a good talking for 2 hours. We have appointed:
-- If my time can be arranged, they would like to invite me to be their formal Specially Invited Instructor to give my cross-culture and comprehensive art course to their foreign students who are major in Advanced Chinese. At the first, we list it as a Chinese culture class with poetry, music, language and painting, along with the time, we can adjust its position in whole of the teaching system.
-- Their instructors will take part in the writing and editing of my publication. Mainly work on the Chinese poems' comment and teaching part at the first, then according the situation, we can enlarge our cooperation along with the time.
With so much appreciation, I would like to take a photo with Ms. Yang, then, I got the precious souvenir...
-- Then, can you imagine? June 25, at the Airport, I got the first massage from an instructor who has master degree of Chinese Language and was major in Chinese as a foreign language, he would like to take part in the book writing and work with me together.
Finally, I will have the first assistant and work partner in Chinese as a foreign language and maybe more fields... :- )
Am I lucky enough?
