Community Profile: Jean

The Community Profile is a weekly interview with a member of our MOSAIC engage community.


Can you introduce yourself? 

My name is Lihua, but I usually go by Jean. I’m the teacher for our Beginner class in the morning and I teach IELTS Preparation in the evening.

What do you like about MOSAIC? 

The two classes I teach are very different, so that’s always interesting. But the best part is the opportunity to work closely with people from different backgrounds and help them achieve their English goals.

What makes you excited to come to class? 

I am always excited to engage students with new activities in classes and see them making progress throughout the course.

Do you recommend Vancouver for studying and why? 

Definitely! Vancouver is known for its quality of life and education. It is a dynamic and exciting place to live and to study. 

What are your hobbies besides teaching?

I've been learning Spanish and Korean recently. I love getting to know a culture and their people through the language they speak. I am also struggling to get better at playing the guitar.

Anything you would like to share with us about you or Vancouver?

I had never been one for outdoor activities before I moved here, but Vancouver has turned me into a fan with its natural beauty.
