Hello everyone! My name is Richard and like many of you, I'm a part of the Fordham community. I graduated with the class of 2015 with a B.A. in Environmental Studies and I currently work in China as an English teacher at the Number 1 Middle School of Li County. Like many of you, I also had doubts and fears about career paths after graduating. I had no idea whether to plunge headfirst into my intended career or to go to graduate school. One thing I did know is that I wanted to travel and work at the same time. I found an organization called Ameson Year in China, otherwise known as AYC. The organization offered me training and also placed me at my current school. I teach grade one high school students and absolutely love my job. Each month, I create a video blog to give everyone a unique perspective of the reality of living, working and traveling in a different country. If any of you want to know more information or have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
