Visit with Adam and Jumbo

In May, I was in Macau and had the privilege of meeting Adam and Jumbo (our contacts with the Zhuhai Department of English Education). We had lunch together and visited the new Venetian Casino. Although we never entered the gaming areas, we still walked for about three hours. It was great to meet both these men and I look forward to spending more time together. 

Zhuhai English Camp 2008 - Ready to Go


We are nearly ready for the Zhuhai English Camp for 2008. This is the second year of this Teacher Training and English Camp. We are anticipating about 120 primary and middle school teachers and about the same number of students.

It will be an opportunity for the teachers to hone their English teaching skills. Both teachers and students will have many opportunities to speak English with our American team.

Here is the team (left to right): Nancy Peace, Charles Chapman, Adam Drummond, Susan Burson, Luke Fetters, Becky Slagle, Shalauna McMillen, Jill Dougherty, Jeff Bleijerveld, Valerie Geer, Nathan Geer, Jeff Sherlock, Bridger Fetters, and Greg Sweetland.

We'll meet in China about July 12, so there may not be much activity until then. But we hope to have lots of posts from our team and from many of the teachers - so check back often.
