Amity Summer English Programme

If you are interested in teaching in China for a short-term period, then you might like to consider joining the FCC Team participating in the Amity Foundation's Summer English Programme (SEP). This provides Chinese teachers with a chance to upgrade their listening and speaking skills through contact with native English speakers (preferably educated to college level), and encourages them to develop more interactive and stimulating classes for their students.

The 2010 programme runs from July 5th to August 3rd; this begins with a briefing in Nanjing, followed by a 3-week period of teaching in the location assigned, and ending with a de-briefing session in Shanghai. There will be an Introductory Meeting in London on March 13th and a UK briefing for Team members in May. The deadline for application is 1st April. Costs are US$1200 (currently a bit below £800) plus international airfares and visa etc. Once in China, all travel, accommodation and food are covered - you will just need spending money!
