Taipei, July 30 (CNA) A closing ceremony was held in Taipei Thursday for a volunteer program that placed 406 English teachers aged 17-24 from Taiwan's overseas diaspora in 66 schools in 15 cities and counties across the country. Speaking at the ceremony, Chung Yao-an (鐘耀安), one of the participants, thanked the OCAC for giving him the chance to teach English to young Taiwanese. He said he learned how to teach young children English and how to be gentle with them by using encouragement throughout the process. Another volunteer, Peng Hao-en (彭浩恩), said some of his best memories included not only teaching children English but also barbecuing with them. "We learned a lot from each other, not just through English teaching but also by sharing different cultures," he said.
