As globally enlightened citizens, how can we contribute to the well-being of our global community?

In response to the question, “As globally enlightened citizens, how can we contribute to the well-being of our global community?”  Zeke answered, “the courage to stay true.”

For him, learning a foreign language begins with overcoming fear and taking that first courageous step.

He imagines himself speaking confidently with anyone he meets, and that image fuels his dedication and effort in studying Korean.

Through this journey, he is learning not only a language but also how to live out his answer—finding the courage to grow, connect, and contribute to a better global community.
