Voices of Impact

"Summerbridge taught me how to be positive. When we do cheers or give speeches in front of everyone, all of the teachers and students are very encouraging. The biggest impact on me is that I am not afraid to speak in public anymore. My dream is to be an engineer to make people's lives better."

Mickey Leung
Summerbridge Student

"Students feel special at Summerbridge. We learn that we have a voice and are listened to here. No one has the same fingerprints and appearance as you and me. We respect each other and there is so much love at Summerbridge. To respect ourselves and to respect others is also education and we want to share that with everyone we meet. My dream is to travel the world!"

Janet Tsui
Summerbridge Student

"Before Summerbridge, I used to be very shy, but I am much more confident now because we learn how to cooperate with each other. I loved meeting the Summerbridge teachers from different countries and different parts of Hong Kong. After seeing how amazing they are, my dream is to become a Summerbridge teacher in the future."
