?????? (Hello)
??? ?????. (Nice to meet you)
Julia worked as a HKSAR court interpreter and a part-time English teacher at local secondary school before joining City U in 2001. Since then, she has been teaching all levels of Korean language courses as well as a variety of Korean culture courses.
Currently, she serves as a coordinator for all Korean language courses and Korean minor programme (serving the Department of Asian and International Studies, AIS).
Julia believes that culture plays an important role in language learning. Over the years, she organized many academic/cultural workshops and lectures such as "Korea Week 07
Korea Week 09" and "Korea Week 11" to bring Korean culture to City U campus.
From 2005 to 2007, she was involved in producing and co-hosting a Korean language radio programme "Let's go Korea I, II, III" with RTHK. In 2005, she won "City U Teaching Excellence Award (TEA) 2005/2006".
Apart from teaching at City U, Julia actively involved with Korean teaching at other tertiary institutions in Hong Kong. From 2012 to 2015, Julia served as an external examiner for Hong Kong College of Technology(HKCT) for their programmes such as "Higher Diploma in Corporate Communication and Language Studies (Korean)" and "Diploma for Tertiary Studies (Applied Korean Language and Culture)".
As Korean popular culture has grown so strongly in Hong Kong, Julia continues to incorporate up-to-date trends and social issues into her teaching materials to keep up with popular demands of City U students.
