Goodbye messages from the IT team
BELHADDAD, Maria
From Morocco
Time flew by and this journey is nearing the end, yet words simply cannot
express how grateful I am for all the meaningful connections I have made
throughout this year, and for all the precious memories that I will forever cherish.
Despite the unexpected turns that this year has taken, despite all the ups and
downs, being part of the IT team this year has been such a great experience, and I
am thankful for being able to work with such great individuals who have made the
ASLLC my new home away from home. I am also thankful to have such wonderful
students whose eagerness to learn has driven me to be a better version of myself. In
fact, witnessing students’ growth has definitely been one of the most rewarding
things this year. Just looking at how many of them were so shy at the beginning of
the academic year versus how comfortable and confident they have become when
speaking in English is what every aspiring teacher could ever ask for. The journey
continues and a new chapter unfolds, although we soon might be taking different
paths, we shall always carry the wisdom we have exchanged and ways we have
learned from each other. It has been such a great pleasure to return to Hong Kong
after nearly 5 years and I am certain that, sometime in the future, I will be back
once again to this wonderful place. Hence, I will not say goodbye, but rather simply,
see you again.
