Teaching in Macau




Macau SAR is a fifteen minute boat ride away from Hong Kong


Starting on February 18, I will be teaching in Macau, China for four months. Macau was a Portuguese colony until 1999 when it became know as a Special Administrative Region, or SAR. Macau will be under SAR government until 2049 when it will become part of Chinese government.  

While I am in Macau I will be lending myself to a great opportunity where I will be able expand my knowledge about various educational practices and theories. I am excited and thrilled to share what I have learned at Central Washington University and to also share what I learn in Macau upon my return to the states.

As I am getting ready for this amazing encounter, it is becoming very apparent to me on how much I will learn once I get there. I have been preparing as much as I can but I am finding that it is very difficult to plan for the unknown. For example, I do not know what furnishing my apartment will have or what I will have access to in the school.

This whole experience will be extremely rewarding. I am excited to get started on this journey!
