Hi guys, I’m Rebecca Lee, one of GEC founders. It was a long story about GEC’s history. Hopefully, it’s gonna be a more creative stage for the ones those are happy to help each other with their language skill, or something else out there.
I’m the designer of GEC’s logo, which was created in 2012. So there’s a simple message from these three colors of the logo: Ocean blue represents diversity and inclusivity; Grey represents a fertile filed where one’s English skill is cultivated, and where one’s passion for English is nurtured; Bright green represents vitality and creativity. And along the way I discovered that GEC is not only for English but multilanguage.
Take GEC Free Talk, I do enjoy it and this served me well in my life. Because the speech isn’t set in stone, everyone has freedom to improvise. That’s why we called it 「Free Talk」, right? It is a simple thing but impresses me. Here, you might fell idea-doubt very often because you’re gonna meet many new friends every single time. But idea doubt is energizing. It motivates you to test , to experiment, to refine. It gives you chances to consider divergent ideas. The reason why GEC is so popular is that it is open to every person who has a dream of being able to improve Language Skill for free.
What about my life? I work in American Education and have the part-time job as a Master of Ceremony (MC). I like tennis and running. Basically, like English, they become part of my life already. I do believe GEC is gonna be my part of life and we guys will move forward together with our common interest.

小夥伴們好,我是Rebecca Lee,GEC的創始人之一。GEC有她的故事,我希望GEC對於那些樂意互相幫助學習英語或者是其他方面能夠互助的人是個更具創意的舞臺。
2012年我設計了GEC的logo,其中裡面的三種顏色的含義分別是:海藍色代表我們的精神像海洋一樣海納百川,多樣而包容;灰色代表沃土,孕育了英語學習的熱情,給提供英語提供了養分;新綠代表活動力和創造力。一路走來我發現GEC不僅僅是我們創始之初只有英語角的含義,經過這麼多志願者共同的努力,時間已經賦予了她新的定義——英語社區,額外增加了多種語言。
例如GEC的Free Talk活動,我特別喜歡,這對我的生活很有用。因為演講並非一成不變,不用提前準備,每個人有即興創作的自由,這就是我們把這個活動命名為「Free Talk」的原因吧,不是嗎?這個活動很簡單,反倒讓我印象深刻。在這個活動過程中,你很可能會經常感到自己在懷疑別人提出的主意,也就是說Free Talk中同一個話題你會和其他人持不同的看法,因為在這裡你每次都會遇到很多不同的新朋友,自然就會有很多不同的想法,你也許會不贊同他們的想法。但是對主意的懷疑可以加強活力,它激勵你去測試、去試驗、去改善,讓你有機會去發散思維,這樣練你的口語還怕提高不了嗎?GEC一如既往地受歡迎,是因為她對每個擁有夢想的人開放,而這些人的夢想就是能夠免費提高他們的英語口語水平,有一個單純的交流環境。而GEC將永遠是他們實現夢想的舞臺。
關於我的生活,我從事美式教育行業,兼職活動主持人。跑步和網球都是我很喜歡的,基本上,和英語一樣,他們都成為了我生活的一部分了。現在GEC也將成為我生活的一部分,為了共同的興趣愛好一起努力進步。
