WorldTeach volunteers in the China Summer Program teach in secondary school-based summer English camps in Hunan Province.  The program is designed to bring native English speakers to teach students from all socioeconomic levels.  Your role will be to build students’ confidence in English through creative, orally-focused English lessons and to design and participate in cultural activities with your students. 

The program begins in mid-June and lasts for two months.  Volunteers will receive a week-long in-country orientation training before they begin teaching. 

Volunteers must be fluent English speakers and between the ages of 18 and 74 by the date of departure (undergraduate students welcome). Due to the intense heat and long hours of teaching expected from the host schools, volunteers over the age of 40 are not encouraged to apply. Successful volunteers will be flexible, mature, and have a genuine interest in teaching.  Chinese language skill or prior teaching experience is helpful but not required.
