We are proud to share that four of our students recently took part in the recording of RTHK’s radio programme In the Common Room.

In the episode, they discussed the power of planning—from managing personal life and studies to thinking about city planning. This meaningful conversation not only allowed them to express their ideas in English, but also helped them build confidence in public speaking.

You can listen to the show now by visiting the RTHK website https://www.rthk.hk/radio/radio3/programme/common_room/episode/1069531 (our segment: 06:20-18:30).

The experience was more than just about speaking: our students had the chance to step inside a professional radio studio, gaining valuable insights into how programmes are produced. It was a unique opportunity in media literacy and workplace exposure.

“The lovely host Cruz is extremely passionate about her work and has encouraged us effectively, which helped us build self-confidence. It was lovely to meet new people and try new things.”– Grace

“This entire process has been incredibly rewarding and fun. It has given me a much deeper understanding of the work that goes into creating a radio segment.” – Ariel

“It was really cool seeing how radio shows are produced. The room was really quiet and isolated from the noise outside. The microphones and control panels were professional.” –  Hazel

“It was an extraordinary experience. I have learnt a lot about the importance of planning and the mechanics of a radio segment. Despite the stress that came with it, the entire process has blown my mind.” –  Lucy
