Ms. Wang, Cathy

Hi, I am Cathy Wang, I am a Chinese language art teacher at Paint Branch Elementary school.

I got my Master’s degree in Education-Interdisciplinary in May, 2017. And I received my Bachelor’s degree in Teaching Chinese as a Second Language and minored in English.

I believe a good teacher can inspire home and instill a love of learning. And education is the key to success in everyone’s life. Being a great educator has always been my dream. Therefore, I chose education field as my major. And I grabbed every opportunity to participate in teaching. I have teaching experience on both the elementary and middle school level in China. I also have some teaching experience in the United States. I taught the STARTALK Chinese immersion summer camp in 2017. And I also volunteered several times at West Side Elementary School, Cumberland, MD, for their Chinese Immersion Program for the past two years.

I deeply love the Chinese culture; I want to introduce the fine culture to the whole world. I believe learning the language is the best way to understand the culture. I would combine the language and culture in my class and use interactive activities to let students have fun in learning.
