China here I come! Follow me as I travel to Guangzhou China to become one of the first students from the USA to student teach in China! Thursday, April 17, 2008. The end is near! Well I can now count the number of remaining school days on one hand. You always here the saying "time flies" but I've never known it could be so true. Time really has flown here in China. Things are going great! We went for the rehersal and the big show! It was so fun! Then this week there is going to be a singing competition i...

China here I come! Follow me as I travel to Guangzhou China to become one of the first students from the USA to student teach in China! Monday, February 18, 2008. An update at last! I hope that this blog finds everyone well. I have been here in China for about 15 days now. We spent nearly 2 weeks in Guangzhou traveling and sight seeing but now we are finally all off in our own directions, at our schools, teaching. And to top it off, nearly every building in Guangzhou does not have any form of heat. After...

Then, we asked the man how much we owed him and he began rambling in Chinese and waving his arms! He would not accept our money! So not only did we get excellent service but we got it for free! How’s that for treatment? J I must say, we are going to be a bit sad to leave all this behind us! Wednesday, April 23, 2008. We had a nice, cool windy d...

It has got to be not only the funniest thing I've ever seen, but the cutest too! Then today, on my way to lunch, there is another open courtyard near the cafeteria. Well I was walking through it like I usually do, when all the sudden here come the 75 chinese 6 year olds all on roller blades! View my complete profile.

China here I come! Follow me as I travel to Guangzhou China to become one of the first students from the USA to student teach in China! Monday, April 7, 2008. What a great weekend! Went to Cheng Huang Miao - old temples that have been revamped/rebuilt and turned into a shopping center. Went to Nan Jing Lu - a pedestrian street that is lined with shops and stores. Saw the Wai Tan (The Bund) and took a river cruise on the Huang Pu River at night to see Shanghai at night! We went to an indoor ski slope!

Well this past week has been quite a week… that is for sure. After the teacher we had a meeting to discuss my progress and my teaching in general. Then the school administration treated us to a big dinner in town, which was quite an experience in itself. This restaurant was huge! The next day I went to Mallory’s school t...

http://mallorysteachingadventures.blogspot.com/2008/03/savoring-small-successes.html
Sunday, March 30, 2008. Long time, no update, right? Sorry about that guys! My internet connection only works part of the time.which is frustrating! Plus, I have been very busy. But, I will do my best to keep you up-to-date from now on! After about three weeks of sight-seeing, I finally began to teach! While they can repeat a typical textbook story, they have difficulties in the area of application, since they are not learning from real-life situations. With all this in mind, I relish small successes: st...

Mallory's Teaching Adventures: Tress Tribulations
http://mallorysteachingadventures.blogspot.com/2008/03/tress-tribulations.html
Sunday, March 30, 2008. Most of my friends and family wouldn’t consider me to be “high maintenance,” or at least I hope not! However, I’m definitely a “girly” girl at times. I even admit I occasionally go by the motto, “pain for beauty.” So having to “rough it” (as I so affectionately call it) in China has rather cramped my style.at least in some aspects. The reasoning behind my newfound desire to go “au natural” is Guanzhou’s terrible humidity! Next came the scary part.The actual cut! All of my worrying...
