Ng Ching Tao

“I believe every person should equally receive the comparable degree of love.” Since I was little, I had not been an eye-catching student, and teachers seldom cared about me. Outside school, I loved volunteering, especially when I saw the needs of students with special educational needs (SEN) being ignored I would spontaneously put them into care. With the mentality of caring and loving all the human beings, I became one of the Inclusion Ambassadors (IA) at CityU, hoping that everyone would receive love and construct an inclusive and delightful campus.

Through engaging the activities in this year, I have developed skills of how to interact, communicate and help SEN students. Before becoming an IA, I rarely had chances to meet students with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). During practices provided by the IA programme, I learned to interact with ASD students as well as going into their world to understand them.

In this year of being an IA, I also learned and grew from “love people” to “being loved”. In the past, I was only giving my love to others and felt satisfied with their happiness stemmed from my assistance. However, I never understood what was “being loved”, until becoming an IA. I found that amid the way of paying effort to love others, whenever they experienced love and care, what followed would be their care back to me. Moreover, this feeling of being loved made me felt blessed.
