I'm Zeng Yan, a teacher with 19 years of experience in Chinese language teaching.

The TED story

In my daily life, I often listen to Ted talk stories. Since last semester, a group of students from Yungu School founded Yungu TEDx and invited nine ordinary children at school to give speeches. Their composure, grace on stage and the courage to hold this event deeply touched me. This is also one of the important reasons why I became the instructor this time. I hope there will be a great platform to help children express themselves, and I also look forward to opening up such a stage for brave people to make their dreams come true.

Things you might not know

I'm good at shooting documentaries. During my college years, I once shot a documentary with my friends and it was publicly screened throughout the school. I think real life is full of infinite charm. I am good at writing and telling stories. I will turn the various difficulties I encounter in life practice and the stories of getting along with students into important channels for dissemination, helping more people get out of difficult situations. I'm also good at using my influence to encourage the people around me to seek a better self. I myself am a little girl from the countryside. Through my unremitting efforts, I have come to the current school. I will not deny my ability to change the world just because of my birth. I am confident that I can become someone who helps the children around me grow up bravely.
