Radio 774, Lufthansa and I

I'm a salesclerk in the Children's Department of Youyi Shopping City Beijing Lufthansa Center, and also one of the members in the Tuan Jie Hu Community Foreign Languages Association. Radio774, Tuan Jie Hu Community Public English Class has accompanied me through the Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. On this occasion of Thanksgiving Day, allow me to say thank you for giving me valuable knowledge, unwavering confidence and sincere encouragement. They support me to study happily and work positively.

As a lover of English with an intermediate level, I've worked in the Lufthansa center for nineteen years in which I had served hundreds of foreign customers from all over the world. Because the arrangements of the working shift are not convenient to change, I haven't had the chance to go to the Foreign Language Institute to learn English systematically. At the beginning of this year, I choose to Listen to Radio774 and go to the public English classes in the Chaoyang Library on Sundays. From the Programs on Radio 774, I have heard about are "the Beijing English Testing System" taught by teacher Wang Xiao Ming and teacher Zhu Min, "English wordless reading techniques " taught by teacher Qi Lian Shan, Monday program "workplace tips" "how to make yourself different and welcomed in your profession", Tuesday program "interpretation skills" taught by teacher Wang Li Hua, Wednesday and Thursday programs "famous teachers on line" "The International English Language Testing System" was taught by teacher Zhao Zhuang and "the English words stem" taught by teacher Bai Yang,  At 11 o'clock A.M. the program "free talk on the hot subjects" made by our foreign friends. At 8 o'clock P.M. the program "city news". I highly concentrated my attention on these programs. I'd listened twice and taken notes and then transferred to my little notebook so that I could read it conveniently. From these programs I have learned the idiomatic expression of the English words and phrases, for instance how to describe the procedure of making dumplings to foreigners, how to express in English "stress coping skills", and how to show my strong points and hide my weaknesses at work, make myself do things more maturely in order to win the chance to develop my career. I'm more anxious for quick results during my English studying, I always pursue to attain the advanced English level. But I know clearly, my English foundation is not very solid, during the broadcast, the hostess Zhou Min had given our audience the precious suggestions: When we are learning English, Pay attention to our position, our steps, don't be anxious, find our suitable learning methods and lasting insistence. Beijing English Testing System broadcasting is my favorite Program, It plays a vital role to my English Learning. I never get tired of hearing the basic English Knowledge analysis taught by teacher Wang Xiao Ming and teacher Zhu Min. Thank you! Thanks to Radio774! It makes my days special!

The Lufthansa Center is a state-owned large foreign mall. English gives me a tool for communication. Lufthansa offers me the role in the play. I'm very proud of working in Lufthansa. I love my job a lot, Lufthansa let me find my accurate work position in society, In the post at Lufthansa , I've realized that even though I'm a shop assistant, but I stand here not only representing myself, and embody the image of Lufthansa, representing China, I do service work well, Local people will think Lufthansa service is good, people from other provinces will think china is Number One.

There are five years until I retire, I very much cherish these five years of precious time, I'll continue to study English hard, do my basic job well. Radio774 is my most loyal friend. It will be with me throughout every day of my life!
