2014年E.W Scripps National Spelling Bee全球总冠军

Greetings to all prospective spellers and members of SPBCN：

From personal experience, it has been a real pleasure to work with the Spelling Bee of China. The organization seems to be a great community to start the project of an international spelling bee. The group’s efforts to serve all spellers of China by sponsoring conferences, training camps, and opportunities to participate in spelling bees are tremendous, for more Chinese students can get exposed to the English language and the importance of spelling bees.

The foundation will truly help budding spellers to grow up and succeed at any level. Not only does this organization inspire spellers in China, but also students from around the world, because with the SPBCN community’s outreach to others, more spellers can get engaged in competition.I am glad to have joined this organization, for I know ofits potential and capabilities to help Chinese spellers. It will continue to serve as an inspiration for Chinese students and those abroad, so since my goal is similar, that is, to be involved by helping future spellers, I am glad that I can collaborate with such great minds. As the 2014 Scripps National Spelling Bee co-champion, I know the importance and impact that the spelling bee has had on my life. By learning the definitions and etymologies of words, I can become a better global citizen by being exposed to different cultures and languages. Moreover, it is a character-building experience, for the work ethic and perseverance I have gained have helped me and will help me succeed in the future. Because I know the benefits of engaging in spelling bees, I am pleased to be part of a group that has similar interests as well.
