Project Information

Description

TSI volunteers are students from top universities in China and the United States.

Volunteers go to rural China to help implement TSI's mission of improving the English and computer skills of middle school & high school teachers in rural China and introducing them to more interactive and engaging teaching techniques. While TSI focuses on the teachers, volunteers also interact with and mentor local students, too.
