- 南康中文学校和耶鲁大学中文学生的合作项目
四月二日和四月九日，耶鲁大学的中级中文班学生将在耶鲁中文教学部的指导下，与南康中文学校合作，以促进中文学习和中国文化传播。此项活动初次试行，并以交流互动形式为主。
- 第一类活动是采访家长。耶鲁学生将在南康中文学校随机采访愿意合作的家长，以理解他们是怎样在西方文化氛围中维持和传播中国传统文化的。耶鲁学生不会问及采访者的名字，身份及其他个人信息。所采访内容只作为完成学校课业用途， 不会被在任何其他地方透露，发表或使用。耶鲁学生可能会征求您的同意， 让他们录音采访内容， 因为他们担心中文水平不够， 所记得笔记不能使他们回去后完成报告。请给予耶鲁学生合作，支持和鼓励！
- 第二项活动是由耶鲁学生和南康中文学校的SIF中文学习社团以及非华裔班的学生互动，为他们设计和主持有趣的学中文活动， 以鼓励低龄的非华裔学生产生更大的学习兴趣。
- 通过这个合作项目，我们希望学校对周边社区和中文爱好者提供更多了解中国文化和南康中文学校的机会。
Regards,
南康中文学校校长：丁俊琪
[SCCS]3/31/17:Short Course: History of Chinese in America, Talk on Tax; and Students from Yale will visit school
Dear all,
We will have three activities to announce in this e-mail. Please be patient to read them all.
- Short free course of the History of Chinese in America, starting this Sunday, still has 3 openings.
- Talk on Tax, 1:40-3:10pm, C010, Sunday
- Students from Yale University will come to visit SCCS.
- Short free course of the History of Chinese in America. The seminar by Julia Wang last week on the history of Chinese in America was a big success. Now Julia will have a 6-week short course on the same topic. The details were listed in the top of this e-mail. If you want to sign up your child, please do so ASAP. The course will start this Sunday and lasts 6 weeks. Good for the students middle school and above.
- Income Tax 101 by Helen Bi & Julia Zhai
Helen works in the tax team of a multinational corporation & worked in public accounting firms for several years. She has rich experiences in corporate, pass-through, & individual taxes.
Agenda:
Julia works in a tax law firm specialized in international taxation as Director of tax & accounting. She has years of experience in tax planning & international taxation.
Time: April 2, 1:40-3:10, C010- - Principles of US Income Taxes
- - Basics of Individual Taxation
- - Tax-related Documents & Forms
- - Common Misunderstandings
- - Tax Planning
- - Q&A
- Students from Yale University will visit SCCS.
On April 2 and April 9, a group of Yale students who are currently taking intermediate Chinese course with the Yale Chinese Language Program will visit Southern Connecticut Chinese School for promoting Chinese learning mutually. The Yale students will conduct two types of activities at SCCS.
- - The first activity is interviews with SCCS parents. Yale students will find the parents who are willing to talk to them for some Chinese culture related questions. This will help both parties to comprehend impact of Chinese culture to daily American life of ordinary people, both Chinese and non-Chinese. The students won’t ask your name, identification or any personal information. Furthermore, all of your answers won’t be disclosed, used, or published anywhere. The students only need the information they collect to finish a Yale project in their class. Please be aware that the students may ask you for the permission of recording the interviews, since they are afraid that they cannot capture everything for the later project report due to their Chinese level. Please show your support and encouragement by talking to them.
- -The second activity is an interaction between Yale students and SCCS non-heritage students. Yale students will design and lead activities with the non-heritage students who are participating SIF Chinese Learning Program or who are taking Chinese classes. It would be fun and encouraging, which stimulate passion of Chinese learning by learners who have no Chinese origin.
- - By deploying this co-program, we hope that we make more effort to reach the community around Great New Haven, and provide opportunities for SCCS members, especially our students, to understand other Chinese language learners.
Should you have any question, feel free to contact me directly.
