WATCH ME GLOW

Hyunwoo Kim, Class of 2024

Having attended Dwight for six years, I now stand on the cusp of graduation as a senior. My experience at Dwight has been similar to riding a roller coaster, filled with both highs and lows. Although not every event was bursting with dreams and hope, looking back, I genuinely cherished every moment as part of the Dwight community. My involvement in various clubs—including the Dwight School Seoul News Club, Dwight Robotics, serving as vice president of the White House, and participating in the Dubai Music Festival—has enriched me with invaluable experiences.

One of my most treasured memories at Dwight was the day my mentees won at the international ROBOCUP competition. With my experience as a former participant, I coached two groups of students to compete under Dwight’s banner. Their hard work paid off as both groups won awards, bringing pride to both me and the entire Dwight community. This achievement highlights one of Dwight’s most endearing qualities: in our community, everyone can be both a teacher and a student.

The motto “Igniting the Spark of Genius” truly reflects the spirit of Dwight, where every member has their own potential spark waiting to be ignited and shared. In this open community, we often find ourselves exchanging knowledge, growing together through shared experiences. From my mentees, I have learned new methods of communication and experimented with different teaching techniques for clearer explanations.

I treasure the time I have spent at Dwight, and I can proudly say that I am, and always will be, a member of the Dwight community. As I transition into adulthood and beyond, I have a solid belief that the memories I have made in Dwight and the education I received will protect me from the challenges that lie in front of me.
