Chinese teacher helps Indonesian realize his dream

Chinese-language teacher Xie Fang is excited that one of her former students from Indonesia has been admitted to Beijing Language and Culture University.

The 19-year-old student, Alvin Rizqi Adrian, fulfilled his dream of studying in China with a scholarship provided by the Chinese government, Xie said at a primary school in Shunde, Guangdong province.

Xie met the boy five years ago when she was selected to teach Chinese at Budi Utama Three Languages National School in Yogyakarta, Indonesia.
