The theme of March 16th’s English corner is What if... , I will.... Though students were a little unfamiliar with the online mode, with the guidance of teacher Kaniet, students actively expressed their own ideas. Some hoped that COVID-19 should end soon so they can go back to the days they could travel around without wearing masks. Some mentioned that they hoped the world would have less prejudice, but more care for vulnerable groups and resistance to racial discrimination... Kaniet praised the students' opinions frequently, and extended his own ideas. He hoped that the world could return to peace as soon as possible and we could build a harmonious global village together.
After that, everyone started talking and had interesting thoughts on various topics: If you had 24 hours to live, what would you do? If you had a superpower, what skill would you most like to possess? If... , you will... ?
During the process, someone feared that his English speaking skill wasn’t enough to show herself, Kaniet encouraged him and said: Our expressing desire comes from the heart, and the strength of English communication ability does not diminish this desire. That is to say, as long as we are willing to think, the process of saying it will certainly makes up to our exercise. Students benefited a lot from his words.
Time slipped away unconsciously in the heated discussion. At the end of this campaign, Kaniet expressed his firm confidence in winning the new round of epidemic defensive war and his ardent hope to see everyone on campus as soon as possible. Let's look forward to that day together!
