After 38 years as a Foreign Language Teacher and Foreign Language Dept. Chair at Coral Gables Sr. H.S., and A.J. Professor of German at the University of Miami, I have left Florida in June of 2006, where my home is in Miami Beach, Florida, USA. I have just signed another year's teaching-contract (my 8th year now) with Taizhou University in the city of Taizhou, located about 3hrs north of Shanghai, in Jiangsu Province, CHINA. I thought it would be informative for others and rewarding for me personally, to log the progress of my efforts from beginning to end, as a Travel and Photo Jo... full info

Most of the Foreign Language Students in China are young ladies.

Traditions in China encourage young ladies to pursue the Arts, while young men are encouraged to study mathematics and sciences.

Each class stays together as a Unit throughout their college experience. During these years, they form strong bonds of friendship.

Though individually very shy in the classroom, the students can exhibit great joy and enthusiams as a group.

They come from Korea, Germany, Japan, Canada, Australia and the USA. TTC welcomes new applications for the open teaching positions.

so perfect
Schneider! It's as if you read my mind from across the world. I was actually going to email you this week to ask information on teaching English in other countries because I have two friends who are very interested. Thank you for the post! I have forwarded this to them in case they are interested in teaching at Taizhou Teachers College .

Magnificent again
Hello Hans, OH, IF I was just 20 years younger how I would love just a month or two of your experience at Taizhou. The photos capture the moments... the blazen colours of costume, performance and 5000 year Culture, but best of all, the faces of all those wonderful people. About now you will see the ink turn a brighter shade of green. Visited Expo in May, there is a possibility I may be going back with our delegation for a few days in August to assist at the NZ Pavilion. Make sure you get to visit this vast site... you need a week to see it all. OK, take care...kevin

some advice
Hello,Hans!I am one of your students majoring in English Teaching of TTC.Just now I read your Chapter125.Your article is easy to understand and our school is alive in your writing.I think it would be better if you give us an account of some stories happened between you and your students.In my eyes,that could be more active and alive.Besides,I'd like to point out a small mistake In the 7th paragraph of Chapter 125.In fact, there are seven departments and two pre-college departments in our school." English, Korean, German and Japanese, Experimental Primary-teacher Education" you have mentioned in your writings are just some majors in Foreign Language Department.I think you must be mistake these majors for departments.If I made any mistakes in my comments,just forget it.

Thank you
Thank you Hans, for your wonderful blog!! I have read many entries and greatly enjoyed it. Thank you especially for the pictures of your beautiful home in China. It helped easy the mind of this mom/wife who is moving. It is silly to worry about such things but I am so thankful for the pictures of the apartments. I am excited to start a new journey in Taizhou. Hopefully, I will be able to keep up a blog to keep a record of our time there as well.
