Ko Chin Wang, Michael 2016-17 Diploma in Foundation Studies

Studying this DFS programme made me understand the importance of team spirit since a lot of assignments are done in groups. I made friends with many people when doing different group projects and presentations. I think that working in a team is much more enjoyable than working alone. Besides, the interactive teaching method used by the teachers in the college made me very impressed, especially the course of College Speaking. I was shy and didn’t dare to express myself. However, through a variety of trainings in performances and personal speeches, I became more out-spoken and out-going. I am now more willing to come into contact with people and able to adapt to unfamiliar environment. View Details

Ho Zannie Hiu Tung 2016-18 Student of Higher Diploma in New Media and Communication

I have learnt so much from the HDNMC programme in the past 2 years. From video editing to digital marketing, this programme provided me with many useful skills. I also learnt how to communicate with others well since we had to work in groups all the time. I have broadened my horizon after studying in this programme. I realized there are much more of media than we see on the surface. It was new and interesting to learn how to write for new media and create a media plan. We get to be creative while learning about the theories of media. Moreover, we went on a Korean Study Tour, from which we got to experience filming and sound production. Overall, this programme was fun. I had a fruitful learning experience. These experiences have prepared me to further my studies and future career. View Details

Chan Lok Keung Tony 2016-18 Student of Higher Diploma in New Media and Communication

雖然在公開試的成績未能符合入讀心儀大學學科的要求，但是在HKU SPACE的兩年時間中，慶幸有老師以及同學的互相幫助，令我有不俗的成績可以繼續修讀關於媒體的科目。我在這兩年間學會使用多種的軟件例如Photoshop、After Effect、Premiere和Illustrator等等，這些軟件幫助我十分多，特別在後期製作的時候。其次，校方亦有提供十分多資源給我們，例如上一年我參加了韓國遊學團，過程中見識到韓國的大型電視台以及電視劇的拍攝場景，都令我感到耳目一新。這些活動除了加深我對媒體的興趣之如，亦都可以累積這寶貴的經驗在日後面試的時候加以發揮，提升入讀大學的機會。 View Details

Steven Lin 2015-17 Associate of Arts (English Studies)

Studying in college can be stressful and miserable. I am glad that I asked myself 3 questions during the past two years. The first question was “What are you going to focus on?” After being defeated in the public examinations, most students chose to focus on the fact that they were not good at studying. That was why they often felt frustrated. Instead, I looked at it from a completely different perspective. I thought of the experience as a way to grow and learn, which let me stay positive and motivated. The next question was “What meanings do you ascribe to things?”, the defeat in public examination meant nothing but a time for me to change. Certainly, there were problems in my learning strategies and I had to improve them. Finally, “What are you going to do?”. I chose to put all my laser focus on studying. During this journey, I am grateful to meet my best friend, the most inspiring teacher in my life. I am not a fan of cliché, but the moral of my story is very simple. When life gives you lemons, please, please make lemonade. View Details

It is a fair and rare chance for students who have the notion of starting again from scratch to continue their study. Our lecturers support us wholeheartedly not only in academic issues but also in personal development. View Details

Yeung So Sum, Fion 2015-17 Associate of Arts (English Studies)

Two years in HKU SPACE CC has passed in the blink of an eye, to conclude my studies, I’d say I’m grateful for everything as being an “astronaut”. Here in the boundless universe of knowledge, it is easy to get lost, to feel abandoned, especially when you have been discouraged by the unsatisfactory results in public examinations; yet, CC is just like a spaceship, providing you with everything you need, getting you prepared for your destination. For me, CC is exactly where I started my literary journey. As a student in the English Studies theme, I have had the best experience in finding my own way. “You’ll never know unless you try,” Without the wide range of choices provided by the College, I would not be who I am proud of today, a literature enthusiast. With the top quality lectures, accompanied by the best lecturers, all CC has taught me is to have faith. Have faith in yourself, think big, wear your best confidence; then someday when you walk out of the College, you’d look back (like a boss), you’d smile and whisper, “Thank you.” View Details
