MoreEnd Of An Era
Some heartfelt words from the TTC team, who are preparing to wave goodbye to another fantastic group of teacher interns. As the teaching semester is coming to a close, TTC’ers from Shenzhen to Chengdu to Shenyang are beginning to plan their next move. Some will be returning home to see missed family and friends, others […]
MoreThe Spirit Of The Shaolin
I have been lucky to travel the breadth of China and see lots of amazing places. China is a country filled with beauty, history and culture. One place filled with this history and culture is the Song Shan Shaolin Temple in Henan. The temple is a mecca for martial arts adventure travellers. I have visited […]
MoreTour-Rific!
Another early start for our intrepid interns as we readied for a full tour day to the Summer Palace, Birds Nest Stadium, Yashao market and finally finishing with a fantastic Chinese acrobat show! Starting off in high spirits, thanks to one of our interns singing to the entire bus, we arrived at the summer palace […]
More认识你很高兴 – Rèn Shi Nǐ Hěn Gāoxìng
Yesterday saw the interns brave their first Mandarin lessons! And what better way to start than with a double lesson, crammed full of survival Chinese! Apprehensive at first to try the very difficult tonal language, the interns soon got stuck in and were able to recite numbers and basic phrases as well as the very […]
MoreExpect The Unexpected!
After yesterday’s hectic arrivals and hopefully a good night sleep, today was time for the China adventure to officially begin! On one of hottest days of the year so far everyone woke up nice and early (some more jet-lagged than others) for a full day of orientations, China quizzes, icebreakers & an inside look into […]
MoreKTV Went Off With A Bang
With the first assignment out the way just in time for New Years Eve, celebrations were most definitely compulsory! Two days off over Spring Festival gave the interns enough time to recuperate and revel in Chinese New Year merriment and cheer. And what merriment and cheer was had! First, in the form of the much-loved, […]
MoreA Blooming Marvelous Day
6:45am, a cold and frosty morning in Beijing Flowery interns trudged to the familiar coffee shop awaiting their bus ride to spectacular adventure. I wouldn’t usually use the word ‘flowery’, but that morning the interns had taken it upon themselves to dress in the most vibrant, floral thermals. It was awesome. It was to be […]
MoreA Journey To Inner Peace…or Something Like That
Every morning on the way to school I walked past the beautiful city park and in the distance I would never fail to spot a swarm of silhouettes dancing in the sunrise. Sometimes it would be absolutely freezing and elderly men would be sporting just shorts and vest. It baffled me for some time, until […]
MoreScorpions For Supper & Tarantulas For Tea
Fried scorpions, grass hoppers, tarantulas, starfish, sea horses, chicken’s heart and erm…donkey (and this pains me to say) penis were just a few of the delightful delicacies on the menu for the interns’ dinner this evening. And no I assure you this isn’t the food that we serve in the training centre’s canteen; but rather […]
