It&#8217;s definitely frightening the first few times, but I have gained a lot of confidence in my teaching.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>By staying in a completely different cultural environment, Sun has also been challenged to see and understand things from a different perspective.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Growing up in California, I was lucky to be in a well-funded school district where the liberal arts were pursued, and I was always around other students who were also very motivated and loved learning,&#8221; reflected Sun. &#8220;Here, it is much more culturally and ethnically mixed, and a lot of people are not as well off.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This has pushed Sun to reflect on her own privileges and understand the diversity of experiences that exist within education. This has also pushed her to think of better ways to improve education for everyone.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Here, as it is in many American schools too, the focus is on memorization and grades versus critical thinking,&#8221; Sun said. &#8220;Creativity is kind of squashed and [students] lose interest in school because they don\u2019t have the proper support or motivation.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Exposure to this has re-shaped Sun&#8217;s relationship with education, and her goals moving forward. If she does become a teacher, she says she will strive to ensure her students enjoy learning.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1158\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1158\" style=\"width: 377px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1158\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/undergraduate-excellence\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/78\/2019\/11\/sun-4.jpg\" alt=\"Sun and ten others pose for photo inside restaurant on Thanksgiving\" width=\"377\" height=\"283\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/undergraduate-excellence\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/78\/2019\/11\/sun-4.jpg 2362w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/undergraduate-excellence\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/78\/2019\/11\/sun-4-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/undergraduate-excellence\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/78\/2019\/11\/sun-4-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/undergraduate-excellence\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/78\/2019\/11\/sun-4-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/undergraduate-excellence\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/78\/2019\/11\/sun-4-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/undergraduate-excellence\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/78\/2019\/11\/sun-4-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 377px) 100vw, 377px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1158\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sun celebrated Thanksgiving at an American BBQ restaurant with other Hualien ETAs.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&#8220;I would want my students to not be afraid that their grade is bad or to not have confidence in their abilities,&#8221; said Sun. &#8220;Even slower learners should feel like they could learn English and engage in it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>For students who are considering applying to Fulbright, Sun says: &#8220;just go for it&#8211;you will be living a life that\u2019s different from the one you\u2019re supposed to.
