Greetings!
Welcome to the 2025-2026 School Year at Jie Ming! I’m Weichen Wang and I’ll be supporting multilingual learners in 2nd grade this year. I love working at Jie Ming and being a member of the community that cultivated this wonderful culture.
I grew up in the southern coastal city of Zhuhai, which is in the Guangdong province of China. I went to Wisconsin for college back in 2006 and later came to Minnesota for law school. After graduating, I worked as a regulatory lawyer in a pharmaceutical company in St. Paul for 5 years. During the height of the pandemic, I had a chance to reevaluate my career path as I searched for truly meaningful work and real connections. Ultimately, I decided to follow in my mom’s footsteps (she was a biology teacher in China before retirement).
I have always had a passion for languages and being a bilingual speaker of Mandarin and English is central to my identity. I am honored to be able to support multilingual students in their academic journeys and endeavors.
Please feel free to email me if you have any questions or concerns. I look forward to working with you as partners to promote the students’ English language learning and development!
Sincerely,
Weichen Wang (Wang Laoshi)
