What past facilitators had to say:
- “It was a very encouraging sign to witness that students found pleasure in reading. This activity gave me much-needed encouragement for my first semester teaching in Hong Kong.”
- “As a teacher, it made me realize the importance of getting students to open up and sharing their thinking to help broaden their thinking, feeling and acting.”
- “I was impressed with the diversity of students in my group; it was nice to have students from different backgrounds and years interacting together.”
