Hello, my name is Wei-Hang Chen and I am in my mid- twenties. I will be graduating
with a degree in business administration from National Central University in
June. Although I am trained in business administration, I am more interested in English
and English teaching. So I have worked on improving my English skills and have taken
different kinds of English training in school. In my third year, I had an opportunity to go
to Boston for English learning in the summer and greatly enjoyed the trip. Recently, I have
started to learn Japanese. I like to communicate with people from different backgrounds
and brain storm for exceptional ideas.
