accreditation. They are preparing for the accreditation. “We hope this major can get B accreditation,
even it’s still new, like Indonesia Education Program”. Initially, the duty of
Chief Coordinator is academics, lecture schedule, textbook, in management level
more. Because of it’s new major in this faculty, they have got problem about
room. We have to borrow mandarin program’s room for making some duties. But, we
will make them absolutely ready to face in direct field, teacher’s world with
good attitude.

lecturer, she is also a housewife. She takes care of her husband and children.
At the first we interviewed her, we knew that she is religious person. Why?
Because she puts more religion more to her children. She also take some
discussion with her husband how to take them care. For example, she teaches her
children to pray five times a day. Then she should practice it before and show
them. Then they followed her. She told us to make them do what we want, we have
to practice it before to make they understand. There was incredible happened.
When her little daughter was five years old, she successfully completed fasting a
month. Then she gave something as a reward. For example her daughter wants a
bag in the store, so she bought it as a reward.
