Amity Teachers Program

Become an English teacher in China with the Amity Teachers Program and you will also become part of an exciting people-to-people movement. "Amity" means friendship, and friendship is at the heart of this challenging program. Hundreds of teachers who have served in this program have experienced life-changing friendships with students and others in the communities in which they were placed—gaining insights into Chinese culture and society in the process. At their best, Amity teachers become bridges spanning the human distance between the people and churches of their home countries and the Chinese people.

The Amity Foundation and its partners recruiting in the U.S. are committed to a multicultural, inclusive teachers program and encourage applications from as diverse a body of candidates as possible. In the United States and Canada recruitment is handled by various denominations related to Church World Service. These churches work together through CWS to send teachers to China for the Amity program.

To apply, first look through Amity's list of participating denominations. If you are a member of any one of the denominations listed, please apply through your denomination. Others may apply through Church World Service.
