My friends, coworkers
When I was into this company, I knew many foreigners. Although I was scare of talking to them, I still tried to chat with them. Because I hadn`t practice my English long time, I would like to improve my ability. Then, I was able to have closer friendships with my foreign coworkers. For example, initially I joined this cram school, I made friend with a girl who came from South African. Because she taught English in our cram school, we used to work together. Sometimes we went to scenic spots together on weekends. I spoke English with her, and she used to improve my English a lot. Even though she went back, we sometimes keep in touch with each other. After that, my supervisor knew that I am interested in English. I know I have to improve myself, so my supervisor helped me to ask for exchanging language with them. I got more opportunities to have conversations with foreigners. I think conversations make friendly atmosphere among people.Five years ago, I was into this cram school. My supervisor told me that don`t treat them well because they wouldn`t treat you with wholeheartedly. So I had a stereotype about foreigners, I didn`t know how to get along with them. But the second example that let me know that is so wrong. She is a girl from Britain. I exchanged language with her, so we went out often. One time our coworker, a Chinese girl, broke up with her boy friend. We hung around and stayed with her. She gives consolations to this girl. When she got drunk, Alice took care of her. Even more because she was worried about the girl, she took her home. Then, she walked back to her own house by herself at midnight. I was so surprise that she did this. But she just said,” you are my friends and we have to take care each other”. In general, foreigners are friendly to Taiwanese. From my experience, a person who treats others well. They will get the same things from others. Wherever you stay, I think this kind of rule that won`t change. If you want to get, you have to devote.
