The 25-day-summer school is a public benefit activity organized by Suqian Yangfan Social Work Organization. Ali is a volunteer of the activity and that’s why he is “new” for these students.

Ali volunteers to take charge of English training as he is a professional English teacher with several years’ experience in China. “Why to teach children? Because I love children. It is fun to teach them,” said Ali.

Moreover, he is good at teaching kids.
Ali said, “Kids are kids. They love to play activities. We have to be friendly with them.”
One student of the summer school said, “Mr Ali can turn some words into a song. It is easier for us to learn. He is also friendly to us.”

As a Pakistani, Ali’s bond to China started in Australia. Ali migrated to Australia with his parents when he was a little boy.

In the beginning, Ali once had worked as a teacher in Shanghai and Nanjing. Two years later, he came to Suqian.
Ali said the relaxed life pace here brings inner peace to him. Moreover, people are friendly to him.
