About me:

I'm Chen Shen, a graduate student coming from California StateUniversity, San Bernardino. 

Before coming to the United States, I worked as an English Foreign Language (EFL) teacher in China for 10 years. I started my first master major TESOL in CSUSB in summer, 2019. Just after one semester, we encountered a pandemic. All in-personal classes shifted to virtual ones. Some of the classmates in TESOL program are American teachers. They shared with me that they were not ready for virtual online instruction and felt struggling with dealing with the technology generation. I could not help imaging how hard I taught the students if I didn’t adapt myself from traditional instruction in class to a virtual class which requests a teacher to equip with some skills on designing an excellent instruction plan with technology. Therefore, after graduating from TESOL, I continue to take my second master major Instruction Design & Technology (IDT)
