内容概要

China cannot separate herself from the world community in her development, nor can the world segregate China for its stability and prosperity. We do welcome teachers with "China dreams" come to us from all parts of the world, and, with joint efforts, we all can realize "One dream."It took Leslie Jeanneret, a specialist in education, half a century to get her China dream realized; it was 11 years before Prof. Ruth Hayhoe, a well-known educator who began her teaching career in Hong Kong in 1967, set her foot on mainland China in 1978; And, Elissa McRae, who had never thought she would go to China, realized her dream to teach in a Chinese classroom within 6 months... Today, the way to the realization of dream is no more that long. We sincerely wish all the foreign teachers get dreams realized in a quicker, nicer and better way!
