About Students
In Dr. Stevenson’s eyes, the teaching at BNUZ sets no restrictions on students’ development at all. Students at BNUZ are humorous and active. And the questions they bring up are inspiring. This is exactly what pushes him to be a better teacher. He has to learn and improve together with students and cannot take for granted that what he thinks is always right.
Dr. Stevenson said “I like students here and I believe that by any chance other teachers come to teach at BNUZ, they must also fell in love with it.”
About International Programs at BNUZ
Various international programs are provided to students at BNUZ, among which many are cooperated with famous universities in different countries, including UK, Canada, Australia and US. Dr. Stevenson told the reporter that many students in his class have participated in some international exchange programs. And he has a strong feeling about the huge changes of the students who become more enthusiastic about learning and confident about life.
Dr. Stevenson said that many of his students choose to pursue further study abroad. And some of them told him about challenges they came across, like the changes of diet and the difficulties in oral communication. But at the same time, they learned to be independent and strong.
