School Life

I am studying at Department of Applied Foreign Language in National Tainan Commercial Vocational Senior High School (NTCVS).  I have been interested in English since I was a junior high school student and consequently, I decided to enter this department.  My performance in English has been not bad and I passed General English Proficiency Test (GEPT) for the elementary level when I was a ninth grader.  As an English major, I spend a lot of time studying English in order to improve my ability.  My teachers also provide me with great help.  I always pay attention to my teachers’ lectures and take notes of key points and review what I write down after class.  In addition to the textbooks, I read English magazines as well as other vocabulary and phrase books to enrich my content.  As a result, I have made a lot of progress in these two years and I took the test of intermediate level of GEPT and passed the listening and reading part.  Aside from English, I am similarly interested in Japanese and I studied it on my own for about three years.

Moreover, I volunteered to serve as the practice section chief when I was a freshman.  I had to remind my classmates when the examinations were and was in charge of collecting registration fee.   Since I had never assumed such a position, I really learned a lot from this experience.  Not only did I grasp the concept of responsibility but I also learned how to deal with my tasks efficiently.
