About Me

I love teaching and giving students to tools and knowledge they need in order to be truly successful in life. I also love long early morning walks, taking photos of nature and traveling all around the world. Meeting new people and eating new and exciting food is always good too!

Can everyone please refrain from calling others out of their name based on their opinions. If you like what someone said, cool, If you didn't, voice your opinion in a civilized manner. If you can't do that then you should not be posting here. Full Comment>>

Blogs : hadleyj09 Posted a new blog China: Life Is Great Here

It's been nearly 9 months since I've started living in China. The only thing I can say is that it has truly been an adventure. One thing is certain, not once have I ever thought of China as a bad place to work or live. This is a great country with so much opportunity. Actually, the amount of success and freedom here ...

No, I am living in Daqing. A more rural, and soon to be modern area of China. I see the driving everyday. For a country with barely any driving laws, and very few accidents, the Chinese are pretty good drivers. But hey, that's just my opinion. Thanks for commenting. Full Comment>>

Blogs : hadleyj09 Posted a new blog Before and After Coming to China

Blogs : hadleyj09 Posted a new blog 5 Things I have learned in China

5 Things China has taught me 1. Be humble. People here will spend their hard earned money (at times) to make sure that I have a comfortable life here, which leads into #2. 2. Share. Sharing is not taught to us in America, at least not as much as it should be. People share all the time here, and it really makes you ...
