Welcome to Sexto CursoMarketing!

Welcome to the new school year. I am Richard Lloyd Evans and I am the instructor at Colegio Americano, including the Sexto Curso Marketing Class. This year we will have a lot of exciting activities as we learn about the global business environment.

This blog will have information about the class, including links to information sites for the students. It is also a wonderful place for parents to check occasionally to see what work we are doing and what homework assignments the students should be working on.

I'm looking forward to having a great year!
