Attention: Are you a teacher? Do you want to visit China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan?

The Cultural Exploration of Greater China Foundation (CE) is sponsoring four teachers from the Greater Seattle area to explore Chinese culture by visiting China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan for two weeks this summer.

In addition to guided tours of historical landmarks, the program will include opportunities to meet Chinese school teachers, educators, parents, and students. CE’s objective is to impart a broad understanding of the people and culture of China.

The program is applicable for teachers of all grade levels (K-12). Those teaching subjects with components related to the understanding of China are encouraged to apply.
Since 2000, CE has sent more than 30 teachers on this trip.

CE is a community-based, nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting Chinese culture and language through education by offering cultural learning opportunities to schools and other institutions.

The deadline for accepting applications is Feb. 28. ♦
