My passion for secondary education stems from my experience transitioning from a regular to an advanced class, which exposed the unequal distribution of teaching resources. This inspired both my desire to become a qualified teacher and my commitment to promoting educational equity. One particularly influential figure in this journey is Zhang Guimei, founder of China’s first free girls’ school, who has helped over 1,800 girls from remote areas access college. As she once said, ‘Everyone needs a stage, and every girl can shine on it. If we work together, they will climb to the top, and from there, the view will be higher, and everything will be better.’ Motivated by her actions, I am determined to advocate for educational equity - not just in terms of gender but on a global scale. My goal is to break down barriers, provide equal opportunities for all students, and ensure their ambitions know no limits, while guiding their curiosity, building their resilience, and helping them achieve and thrive, regardless of background.
