Lecturer Hsiu-Chen Liao of Department of History has been a counselor for 20 years. She believed that as facilitators, the main purpose of counselors is to cultivate students’ ability to solve problems, help them to understand themselves, accept themselves and develop themselves as well as collaborate with teams and care for others.
Through individual talks and group gatherings, Lecturer Liao understands the personal interests, class situations, club participation, working conditions, future plans, time management and emotional management of students, and she also counsel students who fall behind in their grades with regular talks.
