By David Cotter
大衛(wèi)考特爾
David Cotter grew up in Northern Ireland and Canada. He studied for his bachelor degree at the University of Calgary and went on to study for a master degree and a PHD in Trinity College, University of Dublin. He spent the next few years teaching in
a variety of schools in Ireland and later giving lectures in Tsinghua University. He has also published a book on Irish writer, James Joyce. About three years ago David came to Beijing to set up a school. In the following article he describes this experience.
大衛(wèi)考特爾在北愛爾蘭和加拿大長大。他在卡爾加里大學(xué)取得學(xué)士學(xué)位以后,前往都柏林大學(xué)圣三一學(xué)院求學(xué),先后獲得了碩士和博士學(xué)位。此后幾年,他先后在愛爾蘭的許多學(xué)校從事教學(xué)工作,隨后又前往清華大學(xué)舉辦講座。他還出版過一本關(guān)于愛爾蘭作家詹姆斯喬伊斯的著作。大約在三年前,大衛(wèi)來到北京,成立了一所學(xué)校。在下面這篇文章中,他講述了自己的這一經(jīng)歷。
I have been in Beijing for almost three years. During this time, I have worked together with a very trusted and talented Chinese partner on establishing and managing Ai-Hua English. We have overcome many difficulties, and I am so proud of the product of our labour.
我來北京已經(jīng)差不多三年了。在這段時間里,我和一位非常值得信賴的、能干的中國伙伴建立起愛華英語學(xué)校,并一起從事著管理工作。我們克服了重重困難,對于我們的勞動成果,我感到了無比自豪。
After arriving in China with this project in mind, we spent six months ascertaining the best way to set ourselves up legally. This was a time of long meetings at long elliptical tables, at which I could understand nothing of what was being said, followed by strange dinners with gallons of baijiu, at which I still understood nothing of what was being said, but nonetheless had opportunity to laugh and roar. I often felt very helpless at this time.
我們是懷著從事這個項目的想法來到中國的,之后,我們花了六個月的時間來確定如何才能最好地使我們的事業(yè)規(guī)范地建立起來。這段時間里,我們總是聚在橢圓型長桌旁開著冗長的會議,開完會后就是吃著備感生疏的飯菜不停地喝白酒,在長桌旁別人都說了什么我也是一點也聽不懂,吃喝時別人都說了什么我也是一點也聽不懂,不過,即使是這樣,有時還是會開懷大笑一番的。這段時間,我經(jīng)常會產(chǎn)生無助感。
Eventually we succeeded in attaining a license from the ShiJingShan Department of Education, and opened our school in 5 of
