Happy New Year!
I hope yours is off to a good start and your families are well.
We have an opening for 8 to 12 hours per week. This is for someone who would like to teach Arts, Crafts, and Chinese Culture classes online for Morningside PlayCare. The children are advanced or intermediate level Mandarin speakers. The goals of classes are to practice listening, speaking, reading Mandarin while doing arts and crafts, playing learning games and being exposed to Chinese culture. Children are ages 5 and 6. There are 4 to 5 children in the class.
Intern will receive coaching and observe experienced teacher, while also having a chance to develop her own lesson plans and practice her classroom management skills during class periods in which she leads the class. Intern will also have an opportunity to develop relationships with children during one-to-one time. Our previous interns have really loved their classes!
Internship starts mid January. This is a great opportunity and successful interns will receive invaluable experience, be able to add us to their list of career experiences and secure recommendations for employment and further studies. Interested graduate or undergraduate students who are native speakers, with majors in early childhood education, bilingual education, TCSOL, art education, music education, or a related field, should send resumes as soon as possible to: ge23@tc.columbia.edu
FYI, we will be offering in-person paid teaching opportunities in the fall to our best interns. All successful interns will receive a letter of recommendation upon completion. Please share this with your students.
Thank you.
