Initial Establishment

In 2016, several Masters and Ph. Ds who have graduated from UBC look back on the long road they have taken, the sweat and tears they once sweated are still vivid in their minds, but the honours and pride of the past have drifted away. For them, what they feel is the confusion and helplessness of the new students who have just stepped out of China, the embarrassment and discomfort of their younger siblings during the study process, and the torment and sorrow of fighting before each examination. As they have already made a small world of their own on the academic road, they never forget the hardships of those who come after them. That's why they decided to take out their break time to answer questions and solve problems for their younger students. From a small tutorial group, they absorbed eight scholars and gradually grew bigger and stronger, eventually becoming a large educational group of companies across schools, grades and majors.
