Introduction:

Even if we are used to answering students' questions every day, as teachers, we may well ask ourselves: “Why is teaching a rewarding profession? What is the journey to becoming a successful teacher? And how should we respond to the challenges of technology (Such as ChatGPT)?”

On Wednesday 15 March at 7 pm Beijing time, Professor Barnaby Lennon, a senior leader in British education and Dean of the School of Education at the University of Buckingham, will be speaking at BISE's special live virtual event with international school teachers in China.
