Thank you. Hello, everyone, and welcome to YALA's fourth quarter and four-year 2020 earnings conference call.

Further information regarding these and other risks and uncertainties is included in our earnings release and our registration statements filed with the SEC. YALA does not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, expect as required by law. Please also note that YALA's earnings press release and this conference call include discussion of unaudited gap financial information as well as unaudited non-gap financial measures.

Today you will hear from Mr. Tao Yang, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, who will provide an overview of our recent achievements and growth strategies. Mr. Yang will be followed by Mr. Saif Ismail, the company's president, who will give a brief review of our recent development.

It was time to get my license in teaching formally. I've been teaching informally for a long time, and people keep saying, you need to get your degree, you need to get your degree. I was very impressed with how much WGU was on the bleeding edge of getting away from the teacher-centered lecture model and more focused on how students can take responsibility for their own education. WGU worked for me in the way that I learned.
