BN Vocational School (BNVS), a non-governmental organization established in 2005, is China’s first tuition-free, charitable vocational school at the senior secondary level. It is also one of the targeted schools subsidized by the Vocational Education Fund of the China Youth Development Foundation.
BNVS provides free quality vocational education for underprivileged youth. All graduates will obtain secondary vocational education diplomas after passing relevant vocational qualification examinations and internship assessment. All graduates have obtained employment successfully. This has tremendously transformed the lives not only of the youth but of their families.
Thus far, BNVS has established campuses in 9 cities, including Beijing, Chengdu, Nanjing, Sanya, Wuhan, Zhengzhou, Dalian, Yinchuan and Lijiang. As of today, BNVS has helped over 4,000 impoverished youth receive free vocational education and attain stable employment.
About English Access Program:
English Access Program, an initiative of the United States Embassy in China and the United States Department of State, is a global program which aims to help the disadvantaged youth to have better jobs through English teaching.
The program is in great need of volunteers (English Teaching Assistant) who can lead students in groups, help them with oral English practice and assist running the overall event.
About Students in the Program:
There are 80 students in our program, which are all from disadvantaged backgrounds and couldn’t continue school out of family economic reasons. After one-year’s study at our school, these students are doing fulltime internships for a year in different hotels and companies. Every month they come back to school one day for continuous class with further support to their work, including our events. Their oral English is mostly at entry level, though some better. They often need encouragement and help to be able to speak English out loud, which is where our volunteers come in.
When?
The Access Program takes place monthly on the last Saturday of each month in this school year. Most of the events require half of a day(1pm-5pm), though occasionally we spend a whole day going on a field trip(8am-5pm). For example, on October 26th we are having a day-trip in China (Beijing) International Garden Expo. Specific dates and themes of events are as follows:
• Sep 28th, Oct 26th, , Nov 30th, Dec 28th 2013
• Feb 22nd, Mar 29th, Apr 26th, May 31st, Jun 28th 2014
• Summer camp: A week in late June – early July(to be decided)
We fully understand that volunteers may not be able to join us every time. But all events are independent of each other, you are welcome to sign up for event just one event.
Where?
BNVS is located at No.51, Wangjing West Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing, within walking distance of Wangjing West subway station.
Our events are held either on campus or in an off-campus facility that requires a short bus ride. It would be the best if you could come to our campus for a brief meeting before we actually start.
Who?BNVS seeks English Teaching Assistant with the following characteristics and qualifications:
• 18 years or older
• Have a compassionate heart for migrant youth
• Fluent English, preferably native speaker, not a must
• Preferably some knowledge of Chinese, not a must
• Preferably some teaching experience
For any further information, please refer to our website: http://en.bnvs.cn/index.asp
If you or any of your friends are interested in joining, please contact Ms. May Chengnan Wu at 137 1603 1900 or cn...@bnvs.cn .
Thanks for your attention, and please spread the word!
