国际高中美术教师  Gregory

格雷戈里·费尔奇(Gregory Felch)于2014年毕业于美国阿拉巴马州杰克逊维尔州立大学，获得艺术学士学位。他认为自己首先是一名专攻平面设计(即基于计算机和印刷的图像)的艺术家，但他也对众多艺术学科充满激情:绘画、绘画和雕刻，仅举几例。他的作品在他的家乡阿拉巴马州的博物馆展出，特别是在杰克逊维尔、奥本和他的家乡亨茨维尔。

在他大学的时候，他第一次被介绍到中国文化，当时他被选为仅有的十名学生之一，获得了在中国浙江台州大学参加一个外国交流项目的荣誉。第二年，他作为一名大四学生回来了，并计划毕业后回到同一个城市教书。他在浙江教了四年英语，先是在临海外国语学校教7-9年级的中学生，然后在世界国际英语培训学校教各种年龄和语言水平的儿童和成人。他的许多成年学生在各种国际贸易公司工作，他们寻求学习商务英语以在各自的职业生涯中获得更大的成功，而他的高中学生通常专注于准备雅思考试，然后出国留学。他经常分享另一位艺术家的一句话，这位儿童作家兼插图画家苏斯博士，他把他小时候对艺术的热爱部分归功于他:

“你脑子里有头脑。

你的鞋子里有脚。

你可以自己驾驶

你选择的任何方向。

你只能靠自己了。你知道你知道什么。

你是决定去哪里的人。"

―苏斯博士，哦，你要去的地方！

Gregory Felch graduated from Jacksonville State University in Alabama USA in 2014 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree in Art. He considers himself to be first and foremost an artist specializing in graphic design—that is computer and print d images—but he also has a passion for a myriad of fine art disciplines: painting drawing and sculpting to name a few. He has had his work featured in museums throughout his home state of Alabama notably at Jacksonville Auburn and his home city of Huntsville.

It was during his university days that he was first introduced to Chinese culture when he was selected as one of only ten students to receive the honor of attending a foreign exchange program at Taizhou University in Zhejiang China. He returned the following year as a senior and made plans to return to the same city to teach after graduating. For four years he has taught English in Zhejiang first at Linhai Foreign Language School teaching middle school students from grades 7-9 and then at World International English training school where he taught children and adults of all ages and language proficiencies. Many of his adult students worked in various international trading companies and they sought to learn business English to gain more success in their respective career while his high school students often focused on preparing for the IELTS exam and subsequently studying abroad. He would often share a quote from another artist the children’s author and illustrator Dr. Seuss whom he credits in part with his love for art as a child:

       "You have brains in your head.

You have feet in your shoes.

You can steer yourself 

any direction you choose.

You're on your own. And you know what you know.

And YOU are the guy who'll decide where to go.”

― Dr. Seuss Oh The Places You'll Go!
