Living in China is our privilege. We are here by our own choice. It is very important for us to remember that we are guests in this country, we should act with kindness and respect towards our hosts. Often our own behaviors and choices reflect on how willing those around us are to do extra to help us. I have lived in china for 16 years. I have lived in many provinces and cities.  Shandong is known for it's kind people, and I personally find Jinan to be a city filled with exceptionally kind, understanding and helpful.

Living and working in Jinan for the past 16 years has been an enriching experience. The people of Jinan are warm and kind-hearted, always willing to lend a helping hand in any situation. Their genuine hospitality truly makes this city feel like home.

At Jinan Thomas Primary School, where I have been fortunate to work for the past four years, I have witnessed a strong support system in place for our teachers. Our Chinese colleagues, team leaders, and principals are consistently prepared to assist, ensuring that teachers have a positive and rewarding working experience.

I've recently collaborated with the HR department to create a series of videos designed to help new first-time foreign teachers navigate the often overwhelming world of technology in China. These videos cover a wide range of essential topics, from setting up Alipay and WeChat to finding the best places to buy food, picking up Taobao packages, linking bank cards, and even figuring out how to use public transportation like buses, the subway, and Didi. Our hope is that these resources will create a welcoming environment and ensure a smooth transition for all new teachers as they settle into their new surroundings.

外籍教师纷纷表示，通过这次培训，他们不仅获得了必要的信息和技能，也感受到了来自安生大家庭的温暖与支持。

希望未来，济南安生外籍教师发挥优势，为学校国际化教育事业贡献更多能量！
