Meet Yucong
Kia Ora! Hello! 你好(Nǐhǎo!)
I'm glad to meet you all in Te Ao Mārama School. My name is Li Yucong, and I'm here to be an Mandarin Language Assistant. My hometown is a beautiful province named Jiangxi, and I've stayed in Beijing and Shanghai for my education. I'm now studying in East China Normal University, and I always devote myself into the career of teaching Chinese as a second language.
So I'm really happy to be here to share something about China with you and experience your culture as well. In my spare time, I like singing, dancing and I also can do the martial art. If you are also interested in these things, maybe we can do them together.
I really enjoy the time in New Zealand, and I'm looking forward to meeting you guys in Te Ao Mārama School.
