Finding Ways to Spread Awareness

Tutoring English has given me the opportunity to get involved with students from Hong Kong. Not only are they learning from me (at least I think they are), I am learning a lot from them as well.

I am noticing a huge lack of knowledge in the environmental science department. My eldest student, who is in high school, has very little knowledge, if any at all, about the important of conservation and environmental protection. Society here is so focused on development, constant improvement and of course finance.

I have decided to take the opportunity during through my tutoring to educate my students the importance of sustainable development and conservation. It just doesn't seem like there is much in that topic being provided in their schools. I do hope this changes soon.
