Ameson Year in China


Ameson Year in China is a program offering opportunities for college graduates to become Educational Ambassadors by spending a year teaching and learning at public schools across China.

Program

Ameson Year in China is a program for college graduates to provide future career awareness by spending one academic year by teaching and studying in an assigned site across China. Each week, AYC participants spend twenty hours teaching, ten hours in the office or in support of students' activities, and ten hours in collaborative or self-directed pursuits, such as language learning, exploration, and community engagement.

Background

In recent decades the Ameson Education and Cultural Exchange Foundation saw the importance of maintaining positive U.S.-China relations, and believed that dialogue and exchange could support lasting stability between the two countries. The organization sought future leaders to fulfill that mission through its Ameson Year in China program.
