"The three weeks’ STARTALK teacher program at University of Virginia was wonderful training for my 2014 summer. I enjoyed the discussion with teachers from different states, the inspiring questions from instructor and teachers, the friendly and productive sharing time with teachers, the cooperation in three-teacher team teaching for the thematic units, and so much more ! I like the positive learning atmosphere and professional development network with teachers from diverse teaching background at the beautiful University with beautiful weather!  I learned a lot from the program and will use what I learned into my future teaching. I believe Chinese programs in different school settings will grow better and better with the efforts of fantastic teachers I met in this program!"
