School Life

    I studied at Department of Applied Foreign Languages, National Tainan Commercial Vocational Senior High School (NTCVS). At first, my English ability wasn’t good. Therefore, I studied hard to improve my English ability. I always paid attention to what my teachers taught in class and took key notes. As my major was English, I study English every day. I studied not only the textbooks but also English magazines. Besides, I watched English movies and listened to English songs as my recreation. I also made efforts in the sections of reading and vocabulary memorizing to strength my English ability. With my teachers’ encouragement, I took the General English Proficiency Test and passed the intermediate level of GEPT. I’m glad that my efforts paid off.

    Apart from studying hard, I also learned a lot from serving as cadre member as well as taking part in various clubs and activities. I have ever served as cleaning crew leader and P.E class leader. By being in charge of these positions, I got lots of precious experiences. For example, I knew how to communicate with others and how to process problem better. I also become more and more responsible. In addition, I took part in the story-telling competition with my classmate. We practiced a lot, and we helped each other to correct their drawbacks. Although we didn’t get good grade in the competition, we learned the importance of teamwork. I think it was a great experience.

  I’m also good at sports. I joined the volleyball team for I was interested in playing volleyball. At first, I didn’t know how to play volleyball well, but the coach and seniors taught me patiently. With my own efforts, I can play volleyball well now. We attended many games, and every game was the precious experience. We can learn how to improve our skills in the next game. I also learned the importance of teamwork and encouragement. Moreover, I am also good at running. I often got the top three prize on the sports day. I really enjoy my life with my classmates in senior high school. I am lucky to meet these lovely people.

Family Background

My name is Chen, Feng-jhu. There are five members in my family. My grandmother is an optimistic and kindly woman. When I make mistakes, she always tells me ”Never mind, as long as you can learn a lesson from it and correct it, you will be better.” I keep these words in my mind, when I make mistakes, I will correct them rapidly. My father is a mild man. He taught us with democratic ways. He lets us children choose what we want to do, and he will respect our decisions. He is also good at cooking. I really respect my father. My mother is a career woman. I always share everything with her. I think she is toilsome, because she has to work and do the housework. Sometimes I will help her do the housework. My elder brother has been to work, and he will teach me many things. He also treats me well. I am lucky to have this lovely family and I love my family very much.
