PTA x Vice Principal Ms Jenny Ho — An Interview

9/16/2023

(16 Sept) Vice Principal Ms Jenny Ho had a wonderful chat with Mr Chow of our Parent-Teacher Association (PTA). The conversation was also filmed at our train carriage. This shortened version is for your early enjoyment while the full version is to be released by the PTA soon.

Now boys, after viewing this video, please try to answer AT LEAST ONE of the following questions:

1. What can you learn from Ms Ho? Why is that important?
2. What other questions would you have asked if you were the interviewer? Why would you like to ask these questions?
3. Ms Ho mentioned about cross-curricular learning. Now, what cross-curricular activities (involving more than 1 subject knowledge) would you like YWPS to hold this year?

Happy watching!

I learned that having a lots of hobbies are good. It is important because you can enjoy having your favourite hobbies during your rest time.

Ms Jenny

I can learn hope from her.
If so we don’t have hope we can’t do anything.

Ms Jenny

9/18/2023 08:05:00 am

Having faith and hope is important. Having a plan is also very critical! =)

If I were the interviewer, I would also ask: Miss Ho, do you think being the vice principle is more important or being a teacher is important, because I want to know what Miss Ho thinks about this and that's all.

Ms Jenny

9/18/2023 08:10:07 am

Let me answer your question here:

I think it's equally important as I'm the vice principle and at the same time an English teacher. I have different tasks and missions for different roles =)

1. I learn from Ms Ho that you must stick to your dream, because it may decide your whole life ,also being a teacher is very challenging and you need to be patient when you are teaching students .

Ms Jenny

9/18/2023 08:13:53 am

Yes, Michael, you are right. Being a teacher, you need to be patient and caring in order to understand and develop a close relationship with your students. Being a teacher is very challenging as you also need many other qualities and skills in order to help them learn and grow! =)

Congratulations, Ms Jenny! You became a vice principle this year!
Moreover, I wonder how would you arrange your time into teaching and your own family?

Ms Jenny

9/18/2023 08:19:26 am

Thank you, Rustin! This is a very good question! I think time management is critical. Not only for me but also for my little girl. She plans her after school schedule carefully so that she can complete all her tasks before mummy goes home. We treasure the time with each other and we often spend quality time together!

P.S. Our family members are all very supportive =)

I would like to ask Ms Ho does she like fast food. I would like to ask her this because everyone loves eating fast food.

Ms Jenny

9/18/2023 08:23:54 am

Haha, I like fast food a lot. My little girl and I love FIVE GUYS. However, junk food is not healthy, so we can't have that too often. =P

From this interview, I have learnt that having passion and be persistent is important in achieving the goal.

If I were the interviewer, I would ask Ms Ho, “ After being promoted to the Vice Principal, you would have less time to teach. How would you feel about that?”

Regarding the cross curricular activity, I would recommend the school to organise activities that teaches at time management and how to prioritise tasks.

Ms Jenny

9/18/2023 08:49:39 am

Alan, you can always come up with critical questions! Let me answer your questions here:

Yes, being the vice-principal, I have less time to teach as I'm only teaching one class instead of two. However, I have the opportunity to work more on the curriculum. I would like to create a more integrated curriculum so as to enhance students' learning. I would also like to plan more cross-curricular programmes so as to facilitate students in deepening the understanding and applying what they have learnt in different subjects. =)

I have learnt that if you have a goal and you work hard in it,you will reach your goal in the future.

Ms Jenny

9/18/2023 08:52:13 am

Yes, Jayden, goal setting is the very first step! With careful planning, you can achieve your goals step by step! =)

5C31 Jasper Yeung

I have learnt if the thing is challenging,you have to embrace it.

Ms Jenny

9/18/2023 08:50:32 am

Yes, Jasper, having the right attitude is critical! =)

5A17 Jayden Lee

9/17/2023 07:06:32 pm

I think Ying Wa should hold activities evolving English and Mathematics, we will be grouped together and we will require teamwork to finish the challenges.

Karsten Cheung

9/17/2023 07:07:05 pm

I learnt that aiming for a goal and working hard for it could make your dream come true.

Ms Jenny

Yes, Karsten, having the right attitude is also critical! =)

I learn some skills for study from Ms Jenny, so that I can study easily.

Kayden, I'm glad that you like my lessons and find them useful! Let's keep exploring more together! =)

I like Ms. Ho's belief, 'You aim for it you go for it!'

Ding Yi Hong, Gavin

9/17/2023 08:50:33 pm

Q.2: I would have asked Ms Ho why do she like children and why did she chose to work at Ying Wa, because Ms Ho loves children but didn’t said why, and when Ms Ho became a teacher she chose to teach at Ying Wa, but why.

Ms Jenny

9/18/2023 08:56:09 am

The best explanation is that - It's GOD's plan! =)

5E03 Carson Chiu

5C 14 Nathan Leung

In terms of cross-curricular learning, it'd be great if YWPS will hold musical (which needs the knowledge in English and Music) to celebrate our 205th Anniversary!

Hi Ms Ho ,congratulations for being the vice principal.The first question is that I learned not to give up your dream like you just said if you had a dream , you aim it and you go for it never give up.The second question is that how many years had you taught being a ballet teacher?The last question of the cross -curricular,I would recommend to have more activities like music,sports and so on. And I would congratulate Ms Ho to be the vice principal and I wish you the best of luck.

Ms Jenny

9/18/2023 09:02:49 am

Thank you, Efrain, for the support!=)
Well, I taught ballet for about 7-8 years and I also had quite a number of performances before. =P

1. What I have learnt from Ms. Ho is that we should have dreams and never give up on them! Just like Ms. Ho who has now become an amazing Vice Principal!

2. I would have asked Ms. Ho why she picked up her new job as the Vice Principal of Ying Wa Primary School since she is such a successful and amazing person!

3.If I would recommend a cross-curricular activity for this year in Ying Wa, I think that the school could arrange an activity related to Mr. Timely , which is about teachers teaching us how to arrange time in the most efficent way.

6B06 Jason Chow

9/18/2023 05:49:23 pm

Sorry, it should be efficient instead of efficent.

1) I can learn from Ms. Jenny that when I aim for it and go for it, I will make my dreams come true one day! It is very important to set our goal and keep on our passion, try our best to achieve it...make it real.

2) I'd love to ask about how to make a good balance between working and family. It is because I know Ms Jenny has a lovely daughter, she is a mom as well.

3) I'd suggest English x Music. For example, lyrics re-write competition or English singing competition. I think it will have so much fun.

I learn from Ms Ho that we should peruse dreams. Working on what we like, we can enjoy our work and strive for excellence at the same time.
For cross-curricular activities, I think activities combining General Studies and English would be fun!

Congrats, Ms.Ho! You’ve become the English vice principal! Anyway, in the interview, you mentioned to improve our English, we should read,read and READ. But what books do you advise me to read?

Also, I think Ying Wa can have more oral classes as there are only a few and let more Ying Wa boys have the opportunity to improve their English. Do you agree with me, Ms.Ho?

5B 27 Ethan Tse link
