Summary

1. Both Durham and Warwick universities are known for their diverse clubs and societies that encourage students to engage in extracurricular activities. During my studies, I actively participated in charity and music societies, which allowed me to connect with international students and foster cross-cultural exchange and friendships. Through these interactions, I not only improved my English communication skills but also developed a deeper understanding and respect for different cultures.

2. I actively participated in various research seminars organized by the faculty, diving into topics such as social equity in educational practices. For instance, I explored the importance of teaching practices in promoting social equity and strategies to improve them. I also engaged in a cross-cultural academic exchange project involving Australian universities and Indian students, gaining insights into cultural diversity and promoting inclusivity.

3. In my spare time, I worked as a Chinese tutor for a child from a British family. I made lessons engaging by designing conversational activities and introducing Chinese cultural customs. During the Spring Festival, I even gifted traditional Chinese items to deepen the child’s cultural understanding. This experience enhanced my teaching and cross-cultural communication skills while strengthening my passion for promoting Chinese culture.

4. Over three years at Durham University, I engaged in volunteer work, including serving at St. Margaret's Care Home. I embraced the philosophy of “accompanying life with life, and warming life with life,” providing assistance and care to the elderly. Through this experience, I gained a deeper understanding of the value and vulnerability of life. As China gradually enters a deeply aging society, I am committed to contributing to a more harmonious and compassionate environment for the elderly.
