Su-Ching Lin

Visiting International Lecturer ~ Chinese

Hello. I am Su-Ching. I come from Taiwan, which is located in East Asia, and the official language we use is Chinese. Taiwan is an oceanic nation of 23 million people, but it's only as big as Connecticut and Massachusetts put together.

As for me, I am just like most typical Taiwanese, very friendly, warm-hearted and sincere. In Taiwan, I teach Chinese and English as a foreign language. I really enjoy this teaching job. I should say I think of language teaching as a kind of hobby. What I benefit from the most with teaching is not only the job achievement but also the friendship I earn from the class. I like to keep myself busy. I spend time doing things, such as attending teaching workshops, joining aerobic and tap dancing classes, and attending the dream group. Through the dream group I understand myself better :. Besides these activities, I also like watching movies and traveling. By watching movies and traveling it is a good way to learn about other countries' cultures and the languages. I have traveled to the USA, England, Thailand and South Korea. I stayed in the USA and England for a few months to learn English. I spent one month in North Thailand to work as a teacher trainer. As for South Korea, I went there for skiing fun.
