新進教師介紹
　

高中部 林心欣老師
　　嗨，大家好，很高興能在這個園地介紹自己。我是高中部新進老師，林心欣，中山大學中文系博士班畢業，任教國文，擔任高一四班導師。能夠加入實中這個教學環境，對一直以來都在南部唸書、就業的我，彷彿冥冥中有股莫名的力量牽引似的，因此我滿懷著探索與好奇的心情踏入這個環境。雖然不安與緊張的心情在所難免，但很幸運地得到許多老師的提攜與指點，很快地融入這個環境。未來，希望能夠在這裡和大家共同成長、學習，也請大家多多指教。

　　即使生長於同樣靠海的台中大甲，新竹的風對我來說也不是那麼容易習慣。幸運的是，這邊有熱情的客家人、美味的米粉、香Q的貢丸，還有實驗中學這個大家庭。
　　從來沒想過會到新竹工作，就像到花蓮服役也是意料之外的事。更沒想過，接受小學教師養成教育的我，竟然會是到一所「中學」教課，而且還是台灣頂尖的中學之一。
　　樂天知命的我，時常感受到幸運之神的眷顧。人生在世「得之於人者太多，出之於己者太少。因為需要感謝的人太多了，就感謝天罷。」
　　
雙語部 Mr. Nathan Bryant
　　Hello students and families of IBSH. It is a great pleasure to now be a part of this school community and I thank you for the opportunity. My name is Nathan D. Bryant, and I am currently on my sixth year of education. At IBSH I am teaching AP Economics, US History and Geography, all to great students. I was born and raised in Denver Colorado USA, also taught three years there before I began teaching overseas. For the past two years, I have been teaching in Dubai UAE under the IB program. As my picture in the Roman Coliseum shows, I do love to travel. I have a Bachelor’s with a double major of Political Science and Philosophy. I also will be completing my Master’s program this year of International Relations. For all of the students of IBSH who struggle with completing research papers on due dates, I feel your pain. Thus far I have been in Taiwan for a little over a month, and already I feel very welcome. Everyone has been very kind and helpful, and with my new Jeep, I have an objective of seeing as much of Taiwan’s beauty as I possibly can. I love learning about new cultures and meeting new people, so feel free to introduce yourself. I am looking forward to a great year and thanks again.

雙語部 Ms. Janice Duncan-Brown (or Mrs DB)
　　I was born in a small mountain village called Chipinge in Zimbabwe and am one of 6 children. Zimbabwe was a wonderful country to grow up in with wide open spaces, hiking in the mountains, climbing trees, and riding our bicycles all over the city.
　　I left Zimbabwe after graduating high school to go to University in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa, to study Marketing. After graduating from university I toured Southern Africa with a Christian drama company. Later, I met my husband, Mark, while working in a hotel in Durban. Mark is a trained elementary teacher and in 1998 we left South Africa for Taiwan. I loved teaching so much that I studied part time and earned my teacher’s certificate from UNISA (a correspondence university in SA). Although I may not have started my working life as a teacher, I feel that I have ended up in exactly the right place. I love working with children of all ages and believe that school should be a place where all children should feel safe, valued, and have a sense of belonging. I started teaching at Hsinchu International School in 2001 and taught both 3rd and 4th grade while at HIS and thoroughly enjoyed my time there. Mark and I both really love living here in Hsinchu and feel very much at home amongst the incredible children and friendly people. I have really enjoyed being part of the Hsinchu community and have participated in three dragon boat races and performed at a number of Hsinchu government Chinese New Year Celebrations. I have had some contact with IBSH over the years. I have substituted a few times and it was my privilege to be part of the UNICEF project a few years ago. I am excited about teaching at IBSH this year and I’m happy to be working with you all. I look forward to getting to know you all this year and believe that this is going to be a wonderful year.
　

雙語部 Ms. Ruth Poulsen

　　If you're on campus and you see two little blond toddlers running around, with their harried parents racing after them, you've likely just glimpsed the Poulsen family. Benjamin and Ruth came here to teach Art and English, respectively, while Sofia and Eve's sole purpose is playing with toys and eating as many mangoes as they can get their grubby little hands on. Our whole family loves drawing (well, scribbling, for some of us), reading books, and trying all the delicious food Taiwan has to offer.

雙語部 Mr. John Liu
　　Hello IBSH, My name is John Yi Liu. I am the new 11th and 12th grade Western Social Studies teacher. I was born in Shang Dong province in Mainland China. At the age of six I immigrated to the United States. Before I moved to Taiwan this summer I lived in New York City. In New York I taught in the public school system for seven years. I am married with one 14 month old daughter. Madelyn (our daughter) has been quite a blessing to me and my wife. As my family and I start our journey here, we look forward to growing with the school.
