My favorite memory is living abroad with my wife in Madrid. The pace of life was something that really resonated with us - not to mention the food!
Staff Spotlight: Brock Price
Title:
Associate Director of University RelationsWhat is your favorite travel memory?
How have you changed/grown since working for your current company?
I am already gaining a deeper appreciation for students who consider China during their undergraduate careers as a study abroad destination. Students who come to TBC are eager to learn, excited engage with their academics, and motivated to learn about China.
What is the best story you've heard from a return student?
The Thanksgiving and Easter parties seem to be fond memories for many cohorts!
If you could go on any program that your company offers, which one would you choose and why?
I would come for a year and do an internship. I believe it takes about one semester to really get your footing in an academic situation (think about your first semester of college!).
The second semester can be the "deeper dive" into places you want to visit, foods you haven't tried, and faster language gains than when you first arrive.
What makes your company unique? When were you especially proud of your team?
TBC is unique is many aspects. The TBC team is very mission driven and I see everyone work very hard to make students' experiences in China rewarding and memorable.
The internship program is also one-of-a-kind. Students get real-world experience at startups, large international companies, and set themselves up for even higher quality future professional experiences.
What do you believe to be the biggest factor in being a successful company?
I think believing in a common mission. When all the staff of an organization have the same "why" in their work, it makes collaboration and projects much easier!
