Students are at the centre of all we do as teachers. Active learning is a top priority – having students engaged in innovative ways during lectures and practicals, collaborating during problem-based learning, and actively responding to probing questions with immediate feedback through our e-learning platforms. My first year at HKUMed was quite the baptism of fire, but nothing short of amazing. I have so many opportunities to discover what I want to get out of life and my passions during my study. Finding my footing with all parts of life as a med student — friends, societies, workload, hall life and more — is made so much easier by the community here. From attending conferences in Malaysia to pushing through every struggle, whatever paths you choose here, there will be joy and success along the way!
