Teachers and administrators came from all over the nation to observe her teaching, and walked away feeling inspired, excited, energized, and most of all, with a vision for creating a learning environment where teachers love to teach and students love to learn.
廖灏翔教授 – Professor Liao has been teaching Chinese language since 1999, and has taught at Harvard, Williams College, Columbia-in-Beijing and Ohio State.
