HOPE Worldwide

At Hope Worldwide, participants gain an opportunity to interact with the local youth, helping with their homework, guiding their studies, counseling their mental growth, and fostering a relationship reminiscent of an older sibling or even a close friend. The children students work with are all local, meaning their primary language is Cantonese, so this activity is perfect for those who feel a passion for service, as well as a desire to bond with the local community and culture.

Our goal

Our goal this year for HOPE Worldwide is to be able to implement a regular program for students to learn and become better equipped with the English language.

Expectations

Virtual Plan: Volunteers will be hosting online tutoring and games sessions for 1.5 hours per session on any weekday via Zoom for the students at Hope Worldwide. Volunteers may help students who require homework help individually in breakout rooms, or host virtual games such as charades/pictionary for the students to encourage them to be socially active during quarantine.

In person plan: 1 hour homework help sessions at HOPE Worldwide in Shek Kip Mei.
