Volunteer Society Nepal : The best experience for volunteers, the best value for Nepal.
Chinese volunteers teach Chinese language at schools. They also help the children at the orphanage and help at the Centre for Children with Intellectual Disabilities.
Volunteer Society Nepal has launched Chinese language teaching programs at schools in Kathmandu since 2012. The program is very popular among the under graduate students from China. So far VSN has provided volunteering opportunities to more than five hundred students. The most significant thing is the unique relation and harmony between volunteers and school students. They are very much sharing cross cultural activities and languages. Beside teaching Chinese language, the volunteers from China also get involved in teaching extracurricular activities. Examples are Mathematics, English, Science etc.
Recently we had several numbers of volunteers from China who were involved in teaching Chinese language.
Li Huiqin, Zou Yang, Fan Shuling, Fan Wenlu, Sheng Xiaolu and Zhang Ting are among the volunteers from China during this May.
A volunteer girl shares her experience. “While we entered the classroom, all the children immediately stood up and shouted Ni Hao in very respectful manner”, she said.“This really impressed me and helped us a lot to teach Chinese language in a friendly environment”. The volunteers teach basic writing and about Chinese culture and festivals. They call out words for their students to repeat. Some even teach children calligraphy, songs, dance etc.
One of our volunteer comments: “Education in Nepal is very different from China. In China, it’s strict, unlike here. But every day, I’m so happy to just teach and play with the children.”
China is as a growing economy in the world. With the popularity of getting higher education in China, Nepalese students learn Chinese language with great interest. The increasing number of Chinese tourists in Nepal has made the language a lucrative skill.
Volunteering abroad not only allows the volunteers to experience places and cultures that are completely different from their own. It also provides valuable insights and skills that Volunteer Society Nepal has launched Chinese language teaching programs at schools in Kathmandu since 2012. The program is very popular among the under graduate students from China. It is a great addition to their CV.
