Class Report

Hi, every one!

My topic is "YOU". Here I will show you some statistic information on our classmates, such as our nationalities, homelands, length of time staying in New Zealand, resident status, the areas where we live now and the pets we love.

First of all, of our classmates there are five nationalities in total, Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Papua New Guinean and Cambodian. Five of us are from China. Three come from Korea. The rest are separately from Japan, Papua New Guinea and Cambodia.

Following is the statistics shows how long we have been in New Zealand and our resident status. The length of time we live here is between three weeks and six years. Duu arrived here just three weeks ago, but Timmy has been here for nearly six years. For our resident status, except three who are permanent residents the rest are all international students, but one of the international students possesses a scholarship.

Finally, it is our New Zealand accommodation and the pets we love. We all live in Auckland. Most of us live in central area, while K.D. and Joey live in Auckland city centre and Choi and Aki live in western area. Aki and Choi like dogs very much, and they both owned dogs before. Audrey likes cats, and now she owns a beautiful and cute cat. However, Terresa just prefers to play with pets rather than own them.

About me

Hi everyone

My name is Ally. I come from a town in the middle part of China. I have been here more than three years as a permanent resident. Now I live at Waterview in Auckland here is a link to my view!!. I am married and have a 20-year-old daughter. My daughter and I live here, but my husband lives in China.

I completed a bachelor's degree in metal material in China, and then I was employed in a manufacturing-factory as an engineer there for 15 years. I have worked in a restaurant for one and half years here in New Zealand. My short future plan is to obtain a qualification associated with technology at Unitec.

My first language is Chinese, and my second one is English. I have been studying English for about 3 years, two of which I studied formally. I am quite good at English grammar , but I need to improve my other skill area of it. The reasons why I am learning English here are to be able to study professional courses more easily and communicate with others more naturally.

The only country I have visited is Canada, but I have been to Korea, Japan, Australia on my way from New Zealand to China and vice versa. My hobbies are walking, table tennis and travelling.

Thank you!
