STAFF PROFILE - TEACHER


ALEX weston

“I WORK CLOSELY WITH MY STUDENTS TO FOSTER A REAL PASSION FOR ENGLISH.”

I am originally from Northampton in the UK and lived there for many years with my wife and children. Currently, I am working as the Head of Secondary English at the British InternationalSchool Shangahi, Puxi, and have been teaching all year groups through Key Stages 3, 4 and 5. Moving to live and work in Shanghai has been an incredible and very rewarding experience. As a family we have loved the move to an international setting and are looking forward to continuing his for many years to come now as we relocate back to Europe.

About Mr Weston

Outside of school I enjoy spending as much time as possible socialising with family and friends; I am a little bit of a foody and love to explore as many new restaurants as possible. I am also very happy spending time at home cooking, listening to music and reading a good book, or watching a film. I also love the outdoors and try to get out running as often as I can. I have always loved traveling and generally try to spend as much of my weekends and holidays as possible being outdoors and exploring new places.
