    Joshua Beard

    University Guidance Counsellor at Wellington College International Shanghai

    Josh has worked in education for more than 17 years, starting in the United States and then since 2007 in China. In that time he has worked with pupils from Year 6 to university level and beyond in a wide variety of roles: social studies and TOK teacher, English instructor, test prep tutor, after school activities director, CAS coordinator and college counsellor. It is in this last role that he found his true professional calling. Josh completed his undergraduate education at the University of Virginia (UVA), where he pursued an interdisciplinary degree in international relations and religious studies. He later received his Masters in Teaching from National Louis University. Most recently, he received a post-graduate certificate in college counselling from the University of California - Los Angeles (UCLA). He loves reading, exercising, and spending time with his wife and young son. Having married into a local Chinese family, Josh is also working to improve his Mandarin – but he should probably spend more time learning Shanghainese if he ever wants to impress his in-laws.
