Seventy-Seventh Australian Businessman Gansu "Round Teacher Dream"

Lanzhou, August 2nd This year is the 6th year of Alan Gray, a 70-year-old Australian old man in Lanzhou. “I always hope to be able to do something exciting and unique at the age of 60”. In 2006, I was rich in life. He came to Gansu to work in education. As a businessman, he finally rounded his "teacher's dream" in western China.

Alan Greer was a businessman in Australia when he was young and imported antique furniture trade from Britain. “Business is just to make money, but then I get bored and want to stop this kind of life.” At the age of 60, Alan Gree suddenly wanted to “find the dream of being young, be a real self, be a teacher” .

Allen Gree, who has always had a profound plot in China, is seeking opportunities to teach in China. Unlike other foreigners, he has an easy-going nature and he expects to go to education in western China. “I heard that the teaching equipment and conditions there are not That's great, I want to help them."

In 2006, Alan Gray, with the help of an Australian education institution, came to Lanzhou, Gansu, and became an English teacher at Lanzhou University. “Being a teacher surprised me, but what really made me happy was that I can use the teacher platform to participate in many teaching activities."

During the teaching period, the Lanzhou University teachers and students organized an event to visit children with disabilities to make Alan Greer impressed. “I really want to stay in Lanzhou.”

Alan Gree recalled, “I will never forget the scene at that time. The little girl suffering from muscle wasting shook his fingers and pointed at the sticker I prepared for her to tell me the pattern she wanted.” Later her mother told Alan Gree that it was the first time her daughter had moved her fingers. "At the time I was surprised. I really didn't think that the scene I saw was a mother and all the doctors looked forward to a whole The picture of the year, at that moment, I decided to stay in Lanzhou and not leave."

Subsequently, Alan Gree went to Ningxia, Gansu Suizhong County, Yongdeng County and other poor areas to teach, teach them English. “In fact, I also know that a short stay allows children not to learn much, but it is an encouragement and support for them. This is what I really want to do.” He said, "My strength is very limited. I have no ability to do it by myself. I have to go through schools or other organizations. It takes a long time."

In 2009, Allen Gray was hired as a teacher at the Lanzhou Education Base of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and was mainly responsible for teaching English writing courses. He said: "I want to change a platform and provide as many opportunities for teaching in Gansu's remote areas as possible, not to spread knowledge, but to give children encouragement and hope."

The good old man has been a "Chinese blind" for 6 years, but he still has many friends. “Chinese students are very hard-working and eager to learn. We hope that more educated and caring people will pay attention to China’s impoverished mountain villages and that every child will have the opportunity to go to school,” said Allen Gray.

After the interview, Alan Greer said that he is ready to return to Australia in August and will bring his wife to Lanzhou to continue the dream of supporting education. "I hope to be able to run a school. If there is energy, I would also like to go to remote areas to teach children who are eager for knowledge because they need me." (Finish)
