Welcome to Taiwan, Nick and Kathy!
On May 10th, 2025, two special friends, Nick and Kathy, arrived in Changhua from Northern Michigan University in the USA. They came here to experience something new: an internship in Taiwan!
For three weeks, Nick and Kathy lived in the dormitory at Sijhou Junior High School. During their stay, they had the chance to observe classes and even teach some lessons themselves. It was a wonderful opportunity for them to see how we learn in Taiwan.
But their adventure wasn't just at Sijhou Junior High! They also visited other schools, including high schools and elementary schools, to learn about different education styles here. Outside of school, Nick and Kathy made many new friends. They explored many interesting places, learning more about Taiwan's local culture and customs. And of course, they tasted lots of delicious Taiwanese food!
We hope Nick and Kathy had an amazing time in Taiwan. It was great to have them here, sharing their experiences and learning about ours. We'll always remember their visit!

Kathy joined the fun at Wanxing Elementary in Erlin, Changhua! She spent time with the students and got a taste of Dragon Boat Festival traditions by making zongzi.
It was a super special day at Erlin Elementary School! Nick finally met the students in person after doing online learning sessions with them before he came to Taiwan. Their reunion was definitely full of fun and laughter!
Nick had a fantastic time at Tuku Elementary School in Jhutang Township, joining the English club students for some fun activities! It's wonderful to see them learning and having a great time together.
