June 1, 2022
2022 marks the fourth year of the Guan Ai Ling Chinese Education Scholarship. Over the past three years, we have received an overwhelmingly positive response from students and educators teaching Chinese from all over the United States and Canada.
We have been fortunate to sustain and even grow through the pandemic alongside our students and educators, all of whom have adapted to new methods for learning and teaching.
This year’s applicant class is our most diverse ever, coming from a wide range of regions and backgrounds:
- 80% of applicants were students and 20% were educators.
- Student applicants come from 4 Canadian provinces and 12 US states.
- Student applicants range from grades 6 to 12, with the majority in grades 7 to 9.
- 85% of student applicants study languages other than Chinese and English, including Spanish, French, Latin, Japanese, and Korean.
- Educator applicants come from 2 Canadian provinces and 11 US states.
- Educator applicants engage in a variety of education methods including private lessons, weekend Chinese schools, public high schools, university-level teaching, education management, and textbook compilation.
Based on the values of our scholarship – to overcome challenges, to study and apply diligently, and to spread Chinese culture – the team has selected the following winners of the 2022 Guan Ai Ling Chinese Education Scholarship:
