“Last week we had a Chinese culture activity with foreign students. My favorite part was teaching overseas students to make dumplings. People at my table are come from Serbia, and they all learned very quickly. We talked about our hometown, our hobbies and I also taught them some Chinese. All in all, this is the most happiest day since I came to Shanghai, and I wish that we can have more activities like this! ”
