At the time of writing, Jill is studying at Shih Chen University (Taiwan) under the GCC program called “A Sophomore Taste of Taiwan.”

Currently, she is happy to be able to continue her Chinese studies until college and to understand the psychology behind the behavior of others so that she can better share God’s love to people. Jill further considers opportunities for personal and professional growth in the safe, caring, but challenging environment of GCC where there is a “sense of community.”

Jill is very optimistic about her next years in GCC. She says, “I am will truly be happy and proud to finish my studies here and pass with flying colors.” Mulling over the future, she says: “Regarding achievements in life, those are not based on where you studied. In fact, greatest achievers are average students who studied in average schools but kept on pursuing their dream.”
