On 23rd July, Anqing Foreign Language School convened the 3rd Session International Education Exchange Seminar, other known as Anqing Foreign Language School’s 1st Session Farewell Meeting designated for students from the study-abroad class. In attendance were relevant principals with Municipal Education& Sports Bureau, school representatives in Anqing City as well as students ready to study abroad and their parents.
Initially at the rap session, school representatives respectively introduced all the implementation status of their own school’s international education. They all expressed that considering the fierce competition of global economy, China’s economic opening-up has already led the world. However, talents would always be the real core competitiveness. Education internationalization was an inexorable trend to improve core competence. Thus, it was crucial to cultivate competent people who possessed international perspective.
In addition, at the conference, Anqing Foreign Language School’s principal representative expressed congratulations to the twelve overseas students who had already smoothly got admitted to Grand Canyon University and successfully obtained the visas to study abroad. She encouraged students, here, quote, ‘You should find your devotion. You shall be deeply in love with learning only when you love it heartily. You will be madly cling to life only if you love life. You shall go all out for your future only if you love your future. Especially in American universities, there exists huge pressure, which means that you are supposed to make great efforts to find your ardent love during your days in the States, your further studies and careers. Meanwhile, please keep in mind that responsibility comes before devotion.’
In conclusion, long distance separates no bosom friends. We sincerely hope that students who shall head for the United States, wherever you are in the world, whether you are successful or strive hard, please do not forget our motherland--China. Please do keep in mind that in China, you have your beloved family members. Most importantly, please do not forget Anqing Foreign Language School--your Alma Mater to open a new road for you. We shall always be your most powerful backing on your way to success!
