"I have been working here nearly two years and I enjoy it very much. 

My main responsibility is to help our Chinese students settle in Oxford, especially taking their first steps in the UK; and also to build a communication bridge between our school and the parents, as well as combining the two cultures of China and Great Britain.

I would advise students to use every chance they have to immerse themselves in English, not just the language but also the social life and culture.  I can see that some of our Chinese students can speak very beautiful Oxford -Standard English and I believe that anyone can too if they want to.

To make the most of living in Oxford make sure that you advantage of the large international student population: make friends, go out and explore the city and its rich heritage!"
