Wuhan University, my second home

[Thailand] Kanjana Juntree, Wuhan University

My studies at Wuhan University (WHU) were an unforgettable memory for me. WHU’s teachers taught me rich knowledge, experience and the principles of life. In China, I met a lot of people and made a lot of friends.

I found that learning is really a joy, especially the time in the classroom. You can not only learn new knowledge and ways of thinking, but also share opinions with teachers and classmates.

As an international student, I had many questions that I didn’t know the answer to. If I couldn’t solve this problem, it could become a problem in the future, so I asked my teachers and classmates for advice.

When the problem was solved, I would take notes, review, or preview and read books, and then give feedback to my teachers and classmates on my understanding. This process allowed me to gain clear knowledge and, at the same time, apply it flexibly.

Attending extracurricular activities was also part of my life. I think such activities can develop our sense of responsibility and time, exercise our minds, help us solve problems, and teach us how to cooperate and communicate with others

An old Chinese saying goes "It is better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books." I believe that knowledge is not just in books, knowledge is in the outside world, waiting for us to learn and understand.

"There's no time like the present" is one of my favorite Chinese sayings. When an opportunity comes to you, you need to show your ability, but if you don't grasp it, the opportunity will never come back.

I joined the Wuhan University International Students Association because I wanted to help those in need. I participated in social practice activities because I wanted to do something for society. I also joined the Yellow Crane Tower Volunteer Team because I wanted to spread Chinese culture to the world. I now take the initiative to tell Chinese stories, because I want to let the world know about China.

Wuhan University is not only my alma mater, but also my second home. Teachers are like my parents, classmates are like my brothers and sisters. We spent the most unforgettable and happiest time here.

After graduation I found a job that I wanted. As a Chinese teacher, I feel honored and happy because I can pass on the knowledge that I have accumulated over the years to my students.

I make a detailed teaching plan according to each student's ability, and patiently and meticulously explain to them what they don't understand, until they do. Encouragement and companionship are my principles. Because of this, students often tell me that they were not interested in Chinese before, but they changed their minds after meeting me.

I sincerely thank the teachers of Wuhan University for making me a valuable person. Now Thailand is also vigorously promoting Chinese language teaching, and I strive to contribute to the friendship between China and Thailand.
