w88 casino News Network (provided by the Retired Personnel Office)2023Year2In August, I came to Xinjiang Shihezi University from Beijing and started my life as a volunteer teacher.2In Xinjiang in January, the weather is still cold, and the snow on the roadside is more than one meter thick. Daytime starts much later in Xinjiang, both9It’s o’clock, but it’s still dark.
Starting from Monday, I will officially start class. As a national key university, Shihezi University has students not only from Xinjiang, but also from all over the country, as well as international students. The predecessor of Xinjiang Shihezi University was the health w88 casino of the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps, and later developed into Shihezi Medical College.19966193_6275
Shihezi University shoulders the important task of cultivating talents for Xinjiang. The university has a complete set of majors and is composed of numerous professional colleges. Current students are4More than 10,000 people, including undergraduates2Wan Duo, junior college student1More than a thousand people, master’s and doctoral students5About a thousand people. The w88 casino of Foreign Languages where I work majors in English, Russian, Japanese, as well as French, Arabic, Persian and other minor languages. The rich variety of languages in the w88 casino of Foreign Languages shows the openness of Xinjiang. French is a second foreign language in the Department of Public Foreign Languages. At the beginning of class, the students were very interested. I heard that the teacher came from Beijing, and I was even more curious. Compared with English, French is not easy to pronounce, its grammar is complicated, and its verb conjugation is troublesome. Within a few days, the students' interest dropped. In response to this situation, I have added some interesting little knowledge. For example, what language family does French belong to, the history of French, its advantages and disadvantages compared to English, etc. In addition, since students come from all over the country and their levels vary, the teaching speed cannot be too fast. In short, teaching and learning should be organically integrated. After a period of time, the students' emotions stabilized and they slowly entered a learning state. Time flies, and the end of the semester is soon reached. The test results show that the students have done well. I feel a little bit satisfied inside.
As a border region, Xinjiang needs material support from other provinces on the one hand, and intellectual support on the other hand to provide a talent reserve for the construction of Xinjiang. As a member of the implementation of the Silver Youth Support Education Project, I am proud to contribute to the border construction of Xinjiang. Shihezi University takes great care of us gray-haired old people and provides various conveniences for our lives, for which I am very grateful. Spring in Xinjiang is belatedly arriving5It is only in the month that the trees grow green leaves. But in my heart, spring in Xinjiang has already arrived.
