In this episode, we sit down with two educators from XIS’s secondary department, Liz Li and Jonathan Venneberg. Liz shares her observations as a coworker, friend, and cultural guide to our foreign staff, while Jonathan offers a dual viewpoint as both a current foreign staff member and an XIS alumnus from the Class of 2018, speaking to the experience of navigating China as both guest and host.

We also hear from another XIS alumnus, Sawyer Papendorf (Class of 2025), who reflects on a few misconceptions about China that his years here have clarified, and shares his ongoing appreciation for the country he loves.
