Liger Leadership Academy students are English Language Learners. They have been immersed in English for over five years but are still developing grammar and fluency. At Liger, we pride ourselves on prioritizing process over product. Please excuse any English errors as part of the learning continuum our students have taken over the years.
Hello, world! My name is Lux, and I am 15 years old. I am a student at the Liger Leadership Academy in Phnom Penh, however, I’ve born in a lovely family from Tbong Khmom province, Cambodia.
At six years old, I had moved from my family in Tbong Khmom province to study in Phnom Penh with my aunt. It was a really hard time because I still need comfort from my parent. When I was around nine years old, I got a scholarship to learn in the Liger Leadership Academy.
Now, I am 15 years old and those experiences have helped me grow and made me realize that I am capable of being independent, and I do not need anyone else in order to survive. In Liger, I’ve been given so many incredible opportunities. Through those opportunities and experiences, I now consider myself as a problem solver, calculated risk-taker, and leadership.
I like to learn about biology. Furthermore, I am also one of the eight members of the Liger marine Research Team(LMRT). As a Liger student, I always want to become a change agent, It doesn’t matter on how big or how small it is.
