Ms. Qiqi Lin
Welcome to First Grade at Stough! I’m Qiqi Lin. This is my eighth year in elementary education and my third year at Stough. My teaching journey began in South Korea, followed by a wonderful move to Utah to teach 1st grade in the Chinese Dual Immersion program—a path that deepened my passion for dual language education. I’m originally from Guangdong, China, with a Master’s degree in Teaching Chinese as a Second Language. Outside the classroom, I love yoga, baking, reading, and spending time with family and friends. I’m both a mountain and an ocean person! I look forward to creating a warm, safe, and engaging learning environment where students can thrive in both languages and develop a lifelong love for learning.
I'm #StoughProud because: I have been a teacher for 8 years, focusing on the younger grades and Chinese dual immersion for 5 years. Stough is the only Chinese immersion program in Wake County Public Schools. I know this program is awesome and I enjoy working with children. Stough's mission is to ENGAGE, EMPOWER, and EDUCATE, which I also what I want to bring to my students. I am looking forward to being the bridge between the US and China.

I have been working in International schools in Xi'an, South Korea and Shenzhen for 7 years. This year will be my second year at Stough. I believe in the power of education and I would like to empower students to explore their strengths and interests. As a lifelong learner, I also would like to listen to students and empower their agency to help them grow, play and learn. Together, let's make it another great year!
I'm #StoughProud because: It is the only magnet school in Wake County Public Schools. I love Stough's mission and vision.
