Post-Class Waiting

Abstract

One of the most rewarding things I did while studying abroad was not only my research on Chinese students' language acquisition, but also volunteering at a local migrant school teaching English to 1st through 3rd graders. The experience gave me a better understanding of what learning English in China is like for most of the population, and allowed me to better understand my participants' perspectives while I assessed the data I gathered. In this photo, two of my students wait by the front doors of the school for their parents to pick them up.
