"I enjoy the research assistant experience. First, this is a good chance for me to build the ability of self learning, take initiative, time management skill, creative thinking and problem solving. Second, during the five years PhD study, I also learned the spirit of teamwork and the skills of communication. This is an experience of self improvement."
