This chapter explores the journey of an experienced Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) practitioner navigating the distinct landscape of Wenzhou-Kean University (WKU) in China. It examines the SoTL identity, addressing cultural intricacies, institutional dynamics, and pedagogical norms influencing teaching and learning. Challenges and strengths are explored, showcasing opportunities for innovative inquiry and the complexities of adapting SoTL to diverse environments. As the practitioner's perspective on SoTL evolves, insights into its transformative potential emerge, unveiling ways to enhance teaching effectiveness and student learning outcomes in Chinese higher education. Looking ahead, the chapter envisions WKU as a focal point for SoTL research, fostering a culture of inquiry, collaboration, and innovation to elevate teaching and learning excellence in China's higher education landscape.
