Go Classified: Teacher Wanted in San Jose

I have been teaching at the Berryessa Chinese School for 14 years now and am honored to have had this opportunity," writes Jean deMaiffe.  "Because of my rewarding relationship with BCS, I am hoping to help them find other (preferably English-fluent) regular and substitute go teachers for their culture program. BCS has three campuses in the Berryessa neighborhood of San Jose, California.  One is for 'the little kids', one for the middle range (roughly eight through twelve years old) and one for high schoolers.  My venue has been the middle range school, which I have very much enjoyed. Currently, BCS needs a teacher for the high school, may need one for the little kids, and may also need one for my school this coming year or the year after (negotiable) when I plan to retire.  Clearly, if a teacher does well with the BCS school students, the teaching relationship can continue indefinitely.  The middle school has its own equipment and a set of problem books.  BCS has been willing to acquire classroom materials as necessary for my class.  Interested teachers can contact BCS directly through their website, and may contact me via email at jean@dougandjean.com"
