About Me

Name: Thomas F. O'Neill

Location: Shenandoah, PA / Suzhou, China, Pennsylvania / Jiangsu, China, United States

I am currently working as a certified ESL teacher at a private school in Wuxi, China. I have also taught Primary School, Middle School, and High school in Suzhou, China. I am now currently a High school Teacher in Wuxi, in the Jiangsu province. I am also tutoring older students who are planning to travel to English-speaking countries. Some of my older students that I am tutoring are preparing to take their entrance exam for various Universities. I also volunteer for our school’s summer camp program. It is something I enjoy doing and at the same time the students learn a great deal about the western culture. I also worked at the SMIC summer camp in Shanghai in July of 2010 and 2011. During the last nine years I have been a volunteer teacher for the iCity charitable organization in Suzhou, China. I also have been doing a lot of volunteer work to promote our School.

Let us honor our veterans on veterans day ......... 🦅

Woodrow Willson, our 28th President, declared that the bloody European War (World War I) would be the war to end all wars. However, we became embroiled in another global conflict, WW II.

World War I ended with the Treaty of Versailles, signed on June 28, 1919, officially ending the conflict. Nonetheless, the armistice date of November 11, 1918, remained in the public imagination as the date that marked the end of that bloody conflict; that is why Americans honor our veterans on November 11th, known as Veterans Day. There will always be conflicts and wars, but let us hope there will never be another World War.

Let us honor those who sacrificed to fight for our freedom and Democracy, which should never be taken for granted. Let us also remember that America, without its soldiers, would be like an angel without its wings. So, on this Veterans Day, I would like to say thank you to our veterans for your service and commitment to the greatest country on earth, the United States of America ......... 🦅
