Background

Summerbridge Hong Kong is a non-profit organization which creates unique educational opportunities for highly motivated, but socioeconomically underprivileged secondary school students in Hong Kong. Each summer, a group of talented student teachers from local and overseas high schools and universities teach and administer an intense five-week, English-learning program, in which they inspire and mentor local students.For more information, please visit summerbridge.org.hk.

What we have

Teachers undergo two weeks of training workshops to prepare them to design their own curriculum, teach their own classes and evaluate student performance. Throughout the training and the duration of the Summer program, experienced Summerbridge teachers are available to provide support and guidance.

Why this is important

At Summerbridge, we give our students skills that help improve their life trajectory and inspire them to dream big. By joining this program, you will be able to mentor these students, see their self-confidence blossom, and know that you have made a positive impact on youth in Hong Kong.
