Program: Teach in China Fall 2012
Where in China?: Daqing at Three Bridges English School
Bio: Hey everyone, Delton Scott Guynn here. I added in my middle name because I’m still conflicted about which to use.
I just graduated from Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff, with a Bachelor in Political Science and Sociology. I have never taught in a classroom, been to China, or speak Chinese…oh man, what have I gotten myself into! I plan on blogging about where I go and what I eat, and most likely the dozens of mistakes I make along the way, and hopefully the victories that come along too.
