English teachers needed for China

THE METHODIST MISSIONS SOCIETY (MMS) is appealing for teachers from our Methodist churches to help it launch an important ministry in China.

Reaching out to university students through the teaching of English is a key ministry of the MMS in China. The MMS is looking for at least two or three English teachers. They are needed to teach undergraduates in listening, speaking and reading skills and Business English, as well as to prepare them to sit for English examinations.

The academic year begins in September and ends in June the following year. Each semester covers four months. The first semester begins in September and the second semester commences in February. Curriculum will be provided.

The MMS is looking for:

RETIRED ENGLISH TEACHERS or English teachers or people who have been trained to teach English as a second language to foreign students, and

PEOPLE WHO COULD SERVE the Lord in China for one or two years. However, the MMS also welcomes the assistance of those who will be available for just one semester or a few months.

The next academic year begins in early September this year, and the MMS urgently requires the teachers to help launch the English teaching programmes.

Support for living allowance in China can be worked out between the MMS and your home church.

If you would like to serve, please contact Mr David Khew, MMS Assistant Director for Church Liaison, at tel: 9678-8663, or email david.khew@methodist.org.sg
