Global Volunteers is hosted in China by Haikou Municipal Education Bureau on Hainan Island, the Teachers Education University in Kun Ming and several university and secondary schools in Xi' An.
Together, we respond to the requests of over 70 educational institutions in Yunnan, Hainan, and Shaanxi Provinces for native English speakers to teach conversational skills in Chinese classrooms. In addition, volunteers provide child care, assist with building repair, and participate in medical exchanges through other local organizations.
"I formed warm friendships with the Chinese teachers. And I gained a greater understanding of Chinese daily life, customs and beliefs. I am so glad Global Volunteers gave me the opportunity to really meet the Chinese people and to be able to work with them and learn about their customs, hopes and fears." ~ Mary Blackwell, South Africa
