一般的交流計劃都是為大學生而設,萬萬想不到讀副學士也能前往交流學習。能到國內著名的學府交流一個學期,不但令我對自己的國家有了更深的了解及體會,而且普通話的進步更可以「突飛猛進」來形容。

回想當初公開試成績強差人意,入讀副學士先修課程之初,對讀書可說是完全失去了信心。但幸有社區學院老師的悉心教導,願意付出額外的時間作出支援,令我重拾對學習的熱情。特別是在副學士二年級的時候,中英文學科的老師都跟我們勤加操練面試技巧, 讓我克服了欠缺自信的弱點, 而他們的鼓勵更令我明白到要成功便不可小覷自己的力量。 畢業時能夠取得學業優異獎學金,並且成功銜接大學學士學位,不能不歸功於社區學院的老師一直以來對我的關懷及支持!
