Week 1

Introduce yourself!

Dear all,

This is Richard Guozhen Li from Taiwan, or you can just call me Richard. Why I’m called Richard? Well, that’s because I want to make more money to buy a bigger house and a bigger car. In order to do that, I need to be richer(Richard)!

I’ve helped you remember my name better, haven’t I? Well, I’ve been teaching in a junior high school here in Taichung City, the third largest city in Taiwan, for ten years already. My students are around thirteen to fifteen years old, starting learning English from Grade 2 in their elementary schools. They have to work very hard to test into a better senior high school, so the purpose of learning English is mainly about how to get better grades on written and standardized tests, which is a common phenomenon shared by most young learners in Japan, Korea and Taiwan.
