We salute our dedicated teachers!

J Chao (nursery class)
"Being the leader of twelve innocent and lovely little little friends, I was able to recall those worry-free days. Thank you my big big friends (dads and moms who accompanied my students weekly) for your continuous support and encouragement."

J. Chien (pre-K class)
"A good beginning is half the success."(Chinese proverb)
To my dear little friends: "Add more gas! Add more gas! (go! go!)"

AP Chen (Kindergarten class)
"You all worked hard! No matter how busy or tired we were, we held hands and worked hard together. Looking back, we had full-hearted happiness and unforgettable friendship. Let us continue and forever enjoy the fun of learning at Chinese School."

S. Shieh (M2 class)
"This past year I learned more from the students than what they learned from me. The best encouragement for me was watching the students learning with full concentration in class"

J. Lai (M3)
"Treat people with sincere and loving heart. Treat tasks with open and honest heart. Then life will be full of truth, virtue and perfection." A proverb.

KY Wang (M4)
"I am happy to have known you. I hope you have many opportunities to use the Chinese language you have learned. I am sure that you will have opportunities to use it in the future."

A Chen (M6)
"It is easier to learn Chinese than English."

A Su (M6)
"When I saw that you, at 6th grade level, were able to translate Walt Disney's stories, the happiness and encouragement in my heart were beyond description."

V Chen (CE1)
"We have students aged from 10 to 50. Everyone paid attention in class and studied hard."

RL Chen (SCK class)
"I would like to promote Chinese culture."

J Chen (SC1 class)
"Teaching Chinese here has a special meaning and emotion for me. I sincerely hope that my students can use the Chinese they learned in their daily lives and in their future work."

C Kong (SC2 class)
"Chinese language is the key to Chinese culture."

JS Zhang (SC3 class)
"Promoting Chinese language education is our common business."

XW Wong (SC4 class)
"Teachers live frugal and hard lives. I love teaching because it allows me to be with innocent children. They only have sincerity, no pretence. Only if you are willing to cultivate and water tirelessly, they will gradually grow, become strong, and become useful building materials to improve lives for mankind. This is called happiness in the hardship. Happiness is within."

M Xu (SC5 class)
"The precious Chinese culture and language depend on us, the "Descendants of Dragon", to inherit and promote."

DX Cao (CS6 class)
"I am normally called "uncle". I am called "teacher" on Sundays. Because I hope my children can have a good teacher, I especially worry about my job teaching other people's children. The Chinese proverb says:"It's the father's fault if his children are not taught. It's the teacher's laziness if the teaching is not strict." Oh, My! One person with two jobs. I cannot find any reason or excuse to escape."

M Ngan (C1 class)
"I wish you good progress in your studies."

C Dong (C2 class)
"Promote Chinese culture. Learn Chinese language well. Be a good student."
