Q1

What mattered the most to you when you were in school?

上学时,对你来说最重要的是什么?

Lillian: I enjoyed being selected to perform in and outside of school. I found it very stressful if the concerts took place before exams days, so I used to bring my textbooks with me and would study backstage while I waited for my turn. It’s from this personal experience that I answer parents who ask about the worth of music education. I often hear “why should I spend so much money for my kid to study music when my kid won’t enter that industry in the future?”. My reply is always that music training goes beyond being a career musician. That time I spent studying in the wings waiting to perform, I was independently pushing myself. My passion for music taught me how to balance my workload, work under pressure and self-motivate. I was lucky that my parents always encouraged and supported my music, it’s supported my development way beyond exams and schooling.


蓝晓英我很喜欢被选中在学校内外表演。如果音乐会在考试前举行,我会感到很有压力,所以我过去常常带着教科书,一边在后台等待上台表演,一边学习。我会从这个亲身经历出发为那些询问音乐教育价值的家长们解答疑惑。我经常听到“为什么要花这么多钱让孩子学音乐,明明孩子以后不会从事音乐行业?”我的回答总是,音乐训练不仅仅是为了成为职业音乐人。在等待表演时我独立自主地推动自己。我对音乐的热爱教会了我如何平衡工作量、在压力下工作和自我激励。我很幸运,我的父母一直鼓励和支持我的音乐,这支持了我远远超过考试和学校的发展。

Q4

Describe your perfect day in China.

描述一下你在中国度过的完美一天吧。

Lillian: Taking a walk in the winter sun or feeling the quiet moment of winter morning when the sunshine comes through the window, and leaves the artistic shadow of the window frame on the wall. It would be even more perfect if I were joined by my team cat sleeping under that winter sun in my warm house, as I start my work day with my remote UK team.


蓝晓英在冬日的阳光下散步,或感受冬日清晨的宁静时刻,当阳光透过窗户洒进来,在墙上留下窗框的艺术影子。如果我能和我家里沐浴在冬日阳光下的猫一起度过这个时刻,那就更完美了,因为我会和我的远程英国团队一同开始我的工作日。


Based on the celebrated series “Humans of New York”, we want to share the most exciting people in education that China has to offer.


受到著名摄影系列作品“人在纽约”(Humans of New York)的启发,我们想分享中国教育界最令人激动的人物。
