First, compared to the traditional Chinese cultural background, I experienced the constant interactions with English professors. Second, under the same classroom roof, I enjoyed the diversity of cultures from different countries, including Arabic, South Korean, American, Canadian and Chinese.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The best point learned from the diversities is to have an open sight and mind to see the differences between the foreign cultures and mother-tongue culture. Beyond only knowledge learning, the developing awareness of diverse cultures deepened my experience of studying at Valparaiso University.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Name:<\/strong>\u00a0Xiaoqing Wang<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Graduated:<\/strong>\u00a0May 2016<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Degree:<\/strong>\u00a0M.A.,\u00a0TESOL<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><b>Current Job: <\/b>Taught Chinese and English in a junior high school for 1 year, now returning to China to seek employment teaching English.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><b>Contact Email\u00a0<\/b>&#8211; <a onclick=\"window.open('mailto:\\u0031\\u0032\\u0039\\u0035\\u0039\\u0031\\u0036\\u0039\\u0037\\u0038\\u0040\\u0071\\u0071\\u002e\\u0063\\u006f\\u006d','_blank');return false;\" href=\"javascript:void(0);\"><script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.write('\\u0031\\u0032\\u0039\\u0035\\u0039\\u0031\\u0036\\u0039\\u0037\\u0038\\u0040\\u0071\\u0071\\u002e\\u0063\\u006f\\u006d');<\/script><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Best memories from your Valpo days: &nbsp; The best memory in Valpo to me is the diverse cultural campus setting.
