It is something I enjoy doing and at the same time the students learn a great deal about the western culture. I also worked at the SMIC summer camp in Shanghai in July of 2010 and 2011.

Hello April 🧡

Trees start to blossom, flowers bloom, and the weather becomes warmer, making April a popular time for outdoor activities. A balanced equilibrium, it's a time of growth & moving forward in new & positive ways.

April’s name is rooted in the Latin Aprilis, which is derived from the Latin aperire meaning “to open”—which could be a reference to the opening or blossoming of flowers and trees, a common occurrence throughout April in the Northern Hemisphere.

Some of the Roman months were named in honor of divinities, and as April was sacred to the goddess Venus, her Veneralia being held on the first day, it has been suggested that Aprilis was originally her month Aphrilis, from her equivalent Greek goddess name Aphrodite (Aphros), or the Etruscan name Apru.

The people who are all born in April are energetic and active. They have huge enthusiasm and passion for food, science, books, and travel. Apart from this, they pay more attention to actions than words. The people who are all surrounded by the April-born people will always have a bright smile with them.
