Key benefits to U.S. schools and students include:
- Host schools can start or expand a Chinese language and culture program at reasonable cost.
- Schools can lay a foundation for offering AP® Chinese classes in the future.
- Students learn authentic Chinese language and interact with a native Chinese speaker.
- Chinese guest teachers serve as cultural resources in other subject areas.
The Program provides an experienced language teacher from China for the host school or district for a period of one to three years. This is your chance to build a Chinese program efficiently and affordably.
