Self-Intriduction

    Hello! My name is Cindy (汪欣怡). I major in the Department of  English Language and Literature in Soochow University. Moreover I am also a tutor to teach the elementary school student English.I am not only interested in English but also interested in French. That's why I have studied French in the institution called L'Alliance Française de Taïwan for almost one year. In addition, because Taiwan is a country that emphasis on the trade to foreign countries, I also minor in the Department of International Business. However, I once read a book which  mentioned that in generally, Taiwanese students lack of the global views and not care about what things happened in the world. In oder to cope with the globalization and build my global views, I also took the course named "International Relation" to understand the international situations and give myself the competitiveness in the future.
    I also have many habits such as travelling, mountain climbing, baking, collecting postcards, reading Chinese classical novels, and so on. I think travelling can broaden our horizons and experience the local life, so I like travelling, especially go abroad, very much. By the way, I just went to France, Italy, and Switzerland this summer. I learnt a lot of things from this trip and it was so amazing that was beyond description. Due to loving exotic culture, I also like to exchange the postcards with the foreigners to know their unique culture and collect the postcards from all over the world. Furthermore, I like traditional Chinese culture very much. As a result, I often read poems, Chinese literature, and even practice Tai-Ji Quan and Xing-Yi Quan in my free time.
Finally, I hope I can learn more writing skills and improve my English compositions by taking this course.
