My name is Garath Mouncey, I am currently an English teacher at Liuzhou Normal School. After graduating from Murdoch University in Perth, Western Australia I travelled to Liuzhou to teach English. I have been here for two years, and will leave in January 2003. As I graduated with a double major in Chinese Studies and Management, the next logical step seemed to be working in China, to help disadvantaged learn English and for myself an opportunity to learn a bit of Mandarin. My limited ability in Chinese has made life easier

     My time here at Liuzhou Normal School has been an experience, and will leave with fond memories of my students and friends.
