I heard about your organization from a couple who are going to adopt a Chinese child through the organization, and are learning Chinese Mandarin with me. I guess maybe some other parents have similar needs of learning Chinese, or need to have their documents translated. I wonder whether it’s possible that you can help with introducing me to them? A summary of my professional qualifications and experience is like following: • An Advanced Certificate of Ability to Teach Chinese as a Foreign Language issued by the Ministry of Education, China • A Bachelor's degree in Chinese Language and Literature, • A Teacher's Certificate issued by the Chinese authorities, and • A MA in Translation and Interpreting at the University of Westminster, UK. • 13 years experience of teaching Chinese in a university in China More details are available at my website www.mandarin4u.co.uk I can also provide my CV and certificates if needed. Apart from seeking jobs, I also would like to see what I can do for the organization. If you would like to build up some connections with Chinese communities in UK, or to organize Chinese related events, maybe I can help with that. For example, I know an internet forum for Chinese people in UK, where there are sub- forums on raising baby, on Chinese cooking, etc. Lots of Chinese mothers get to know and meet up with each other through the forum. I guess this might be helpful for some families with a Chinese child. I look forward to hearing from you. Best regards, Jenny Chen Mobile: 07726 474960 http://www.mandarin4u.co.uk
