What is your plan for the future drama courses in OCAC-Wuxi?

Victor：In the coming years,the OCAC drama subject will providethe students with the necessary tools to succeed in the new world, a world thatrequires employees to do more things than simply being able to memorize facts,a world in which teamwork, creativity, public speaking, the ability to lead, the ability to improvise on the spot, or the ability to remain calm when faced with adversity are a lot more valuable. With all that in mind we are planning on having Units on debates, speeches, stand up comedy, storytelling, news anchoring, and many more fun and useful stuff, so I feel very excited about the future of the school.
