Тротз, Тайсон Джаред, Sewanee, the University of the South

Здравствйте! My name is Tyson Trotz and in the fall of 2015 I will be journeying to the ancient city of Vladimir, Russia to teach English at the American home. I grew up in Nashville, Tennessee, but both my parents come from Manitoba, Canada. As a child my two greatest passions were history and nature and not much has changed since then. My interest in Russian was first sparked by my family’s Slavic heritage, leading me to the beautiful rural campus of Sewanee, the University of the South where I double majored in History and Russian. In the summer of 2011 I did a summer study abroad in St. Petersburg and I look forward to returning to a new city. Some of my other hobbies include cooking, reading, and traveling. I also love to exercise and train in martial arts, parkour, and weight lifting. A great adventure lies ahead of me and I can’t wait to make new friends and begin my experience as an English teacher in Vladimir.
