Background
CantoGather makes Chinese accessible to our non-Chinese neighbours by helping them start early — with professors from HKU, we have developed an effective programme for non-Chinese students to learn Chinese holistically. And we need passionate volunteers like you to deliver it!
What we have
A 3-hour training workshop and ongoing feedback on teaching will be provided.
Why this is important
Our Chinese language programme is one of the main programmes of CantoGather as language is at the core of Communication. And with Communication, comes Unity — creating a Community in our City.
