In September, 1973, Zhiyun Wang was admitted to the Foreign Languages Department of Guizhou University to study. In college, he was the study committee member of the class. Among the students in the same grade 100, his academic performance is the best, and he is a "three-good student" every year. His study and behavior are deeply appreciated by his classmates and loved by his teachers. Graduated in July, 1976. There are two outstanding students this year, one is Zhiyun Wang and the other is Binglin Li. During the period of 1978, the spring breeze of reform and opening-up blew into the university campus, and the cooperation and exchanges between Da Gui and foreign countries became more frequent, which increased the opportunities for the province to go abroad. However, the lack of high-level foreign language talents has seriously affected Guizhou's foreign exchange, cooperation and development. In order to solve this urgent problem in Guizhou's economic development, under the guidance of the Provincial Education Commission, Zhiyun Wang and others set up the first foreign language training center in Da Gui Foreign Languages Department. After four years of hard work, you have trained a large number of economic, trade and scientific research talents with professional technical knowledge and high foreign language level for relevant units, departments, industries and enterprises in our province. This move broke the deadlock that there were many indicators for studying abroad and few qualified foreign language talents in our province at that time, and made positive contributions to our superior products, craft products and national culture going out of Guizhou and going to the world.
While doing a good job in teaching, Dr. Wang always adheres to the spirit of tireless study and research, constantly enriches his language knowledge and improves his teaching level. As an English teacher, he hopes to go to England for further study one day.
Second, study in Britain for ten years.
1990, Dr. Wang finally got the opportunity to study in the UK and organized him to be a visiting scholar in the UK. 1June 1990 to1May 1995, studied and lectured at Queen's University and obtained a master's degree. 1In April, 1996, Zhiyun Wang transferred to elster University to study for a doctorate.
Living in Britain for 10 years is an important period for Dr. Wang to make a major breakthrough in knowledge and mature his life. He has just gone to England and his living expenses are high. He lives on state subsidies, and his expenses are already tight. After finishing the degree, it is even more difficult to live by work-study program. If Zhiyun Wang gives up his studies and looks for a job, life will certainly not be a problem, but he is bent on learning something and won't stop until he gets his doctorate. So he discussed with his wife to let her go to England, and her wife helped Dr. Wang finish his studies. His wife is very valuable. She actually left a comfortable provincial work unit in China, and the husband and wife worked in Britain for eight years, so Dr. Wang finally got the right result. This is really a much-told story in the education field of our province. In 2000, Zhiyun Wang received a doctorate with honors. During his teaching and studying in Britain, Zhiyun Wang's personality, character and knowledge were praised by his classmates and teachers, especially his doctoral supervisor (Pritchart), Ms. prichard, who praised him greatly, saying that he was the most diligent and solid scholar among China students.
During his study, Dr. Wang worked hard to study compulsory courses in various subjects, and also worked hard to carry out some teaching and scientific research activities. He often goes deep into some primary and secondary schools to carry out research, and especially likes to go to primary and secondary schools where foreign students are concentrated in China. He observed and understood students' responses to foreign language pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, living environment, living habits and other factors in English learning, investigated the mutual influence and restriction of these social factors on language learning input, and paid special attention to the psychological changes of China children in learning English to China's mother tongue. Dr. Wang exchanged views with British scholars on these studies. Foreign research in this field has made great achievements, but domestic research in this field is still very weak. Knowing the importance of this achievement to the future teaching work, Dr. Wang decided to bring his research achievements abroad back to China, and after finishing and processing, he completed the monograph Language Input and Second Language Acquisition, which was published by Guizhou People's Publishing House in June 2002. Domestic research in these fields has not been widely carried out, and Dr. Wang is a pioneer after returning to China. In April 2003, Dr. Wang was invited to attend the first academic seminar held in Guangzhou and made an important special speech at the meeting.
When Zhiyun Wang succeeded in studying in Britain and obtained his doctorate, he undertook the teaching task of a large number of master students in the University of Ulster, and his study, work and life have undergone tremendous changes. At this time, China has been vigorously developing the western region, and your school lost no time in calling him back to school. During this period, famous universities and scientific research units in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen also invited him to work in this school or unit and gave him higher treatment conditions. At the same time, the British side tried its best to keep him in school, because Dr. Wang's overseas students in China had a great influence. However, he sealed all the above relationships and returned to your university without hesitation. He wants to shine for the development of western China.
Third, the foreign language teaching in your school is sublimated in their hands.
After 10, Dr. Wang returned to his alma mater.
Back to your university and the Foreign Languages Department of your university, he felt that the changes in his alma mater were not as great as expected, and the teaching equipment, conditions and environment remained unchanged. However, a considerable number of talented teachers left the school a few years ago, and the teaching staff was uneven. Looking at this situation at his alma mater, it is quite different from several famous universities in China that he has been to. Although the school conditions are poor, this does not shake Dr. Wang's will to return to school and display his ambition.
Although the school conditions are poor, at this time, your correction is pregnant with great development. Dr. Wang's return is a good opportunity to show his talent and ambition. On the eve of returning to China, Da Gui had completed the work of establishing a new Guizhou University together with many universities such as Agricultural College, and then Da Gui was reorganized internally, and new colleges were established one after another. In May 2002, the School of Foreign Languages of Guizhou University was approved to be established, with Zhiyun Wang as its president. Prior to this, Zhiyun Wang's professional title has been decided, and the doctor's building funded by the provincial government and Mr. and Mrs. Zhiyun Wang has also moved in, which makes him feel the warmth of the organization. Doctors like him, especially those who went from Shanghai to Guizhou as farmers after graduating from high school and returned to work in Guizhou without hesitation after studying abroad, are regarded as "national treasures" by the party and government leaders and people in Guizhou. Therefore, the organization will definitely formulate the best plan and give full play to the best talent effect.
As a party member in China, Dr. Wang felt a great responsibility after being appointed as the director of the Institute. Zhiyun Wang is determined to implement Theory of Three Represents with practical actions and promote the development of Foreign Languages Institute with his wisdom and talent. Dr. Wang has taken effective measures:
First, attach importance to the construction of teaching staff, change teaching concepts and methods, and improve teaching conditions. The construction of teaching staff has achieved initial results. When Zhiyun Wang returned to school in 2000, there was only one master's degree among foreign language teachers. Through the efforts of selection and training, the number of master's degree teachers has increased to 170, and there are 268 faculty members, including 6 professors, 38 associate professors and 53 lecturers, including 3 doctors and 46 masters. 50% of young teachers have master's degrees or are studying for master's degrees.
The second is to enrich the teaching connotation. On the basis of seriously starting English teaching, we will gradually increase the teaching of Japanese, German, French, Russian and other languages. At the same time, it also expanded the source of students' enrollment. Now the number of students has expanded to more than a dozen provinces and cities across the country, and the number of students enrolled is also increasing.
Third, pay attention to the combination of teaching and scientific research. Through hard work, the number of scientific research projects undertaken by the school has increased from two or three each year in 2000, with funds of several thousand yuan to more than 20 each year, with funds of several hundred thousand yuan.
Fourth, make full use of the relationship with foreign countries and jointly run schools with relevant foreign regions and countries. At present, the school has signed agreements with Greenwich, Chelsea, Birmingham, Philippines, Thailand, Australia, New Zealand, Japan and other countries to jointly train master students and students in the region. After studying in the School of Foreign Languages of your university for one and a half years, I studied in this country for half a year, got a master's degree, and gave relevant financial support.
Many useful activities have been carried out in grasping Japanese teaching and promoting Sino-Japanese teaching exchange. The school won 6.5438 million yen from the Japanese government, a scholarship for Japanese students from the Japanese government, and an annual invitation from Japanese teachers and students to visit Japan. At the same time, the school has more and more contacts with other countries and regions, and the college is constantly strengthening its extensive contacts with foreign teaching and research.
While doing a good job in administrative leadership, Dr. Wang also undertook a large number of teaching tasks, and took the lead in organizing scientific research activities and actively carrying out various international exchange activities. With the joint efforts of him and other comrades in your school of foreign languages, they are trying to write a new chapter in your school's foreign language teaching with unprecedented efforts.
