Teaching Volunteer Stories, China

Teaching in China - Michiel Kemeling
China. Land of the Great Wall. Land of the wise, of the inventions. Land with 5000 years of history filled with dynasties and their emperors. All I knew of China is what I saw in 'Crouching tiger, hidden dragon' and Bruce Lee movies. There I went, a Dutch guy on his way to China, land of Kung Fu and the Green Destiny.

Teaching in China - Shaun Passey
I am currently doing a teaching placement here in the bustling metropolis that is Shanghai. I know it's the biggest cliché ever but I can honestly say that it is an experience quite out of this world. I'm teaching a wide range of students from pre-junior (11-12 year olds) to junior two students (14-15 year olds). Their level of spoken English exceeded my expectations so settling in was much easier than anticipated.
