Have you ever heard of a foreign teacher from Bristol, the UK? He is working very hard to achieve his Chinese dream. His name is James. He has been a teacher at Hunan University of Arts and Science for sixteen years. His students love him and call him a “legendary” foreign teacher.
Since he was a little child, he felt like he had a feeling of friendship with China. Now, he spends a lot of time doing charity (慈善) work. And he has always worked wholeheartedly for the people. He cares about the veterans (退伍军人) who fought in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931—1945). He has been volunteering at a local aid center in Changde, Hunan Province for those veterans for over six years. He often travels to many small villages to visit the veterans with other volunteers. “Charity is our duty,” says James. “We shouldn’t forget these veterans. Everyone should care for them.”
James also helps poor students by supporting their education. He believes every student should have a chance to learn. Because of his effort, in September 2014, James won Hunan’s Seventh Xiaoxiang Friendship Award (奖). This award is given to foreigners who help make Hunan a better place by the People’s Government of Hunan Province.
Now James is trying to get a Chinese green card. He wants to stay in China forever. “Some people think being successful means having enough money,” he says. “But my dream is to help more people in need.” He hopes to become part of Chinese society and take real action to achieve his Chinese dream step by step.
