Huayuan Chinese Academy (HYCA) is
formed by a group of dedicated educators who devote
themselves to providing young children with the
opportunities in learning Chinese language and culture.
It is the first after-school Chinese educational
institution in the greater Washington DC metro area. We
strive to provide the daily immersion of Chinese in an
enriched Chinese environment to local communities.
Multi linguistic capability is essential in today's
globalized collaborations and world economy. As China
has emerged from a period of stagnation and become one
of the great powers of the world, a high quality of
Chinese linguistic education will provide a competitive
edge for the young Americans to become tomorrow’s world
leaders. At HYCA, we also provide help for students to
extend their learning experience beyond their
classrooms. The students will engage in building the
knowledge, skills, and attitude to be successful and
contributing members of a global society.
Please take a quick look at our
school overview and check out our
programs.
Registration can be

Student Service Learning (SSL) Hours Opportunity
HYCA has been approved to offer opportunities to Montgomery county public school students to earn Student Service Learning (SSL) credit. (http://volunteer.truist.com/mcvc/org/10597862374.html)
Students in Montgomery county public schools are required to earn a total of 75 hours of SSL hours starting in 6th grade. You can meet or exceed this requirement by volunteering at HCA as a student teaching assistant.
If you speak fluent Chinese, and love to help younger students in learning Chinese language and culture, math and science or art and craft, this is a great opportunity for you. Your typical work schedule is from 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM Monday to Friday with some flexibility. You will assist the classroom teacher in small-group Chinese instruction and other activities as assigned by the teacher. You will gain valuable leadership and management skills while earning SSL credits.
We are currently offering this opportunity in the following schools: Bells Mill ES, Beverly Farm ES, Burning Tree ES, Stone Mill ES, Fallsmead ES, and Travilah ES. If you are interested, please fill out this Student Volunteer Application Form.
