British Council Hong Kong has the biggest English teaching centre in the worldwide network and our expertise in English teaching exerted to across our community involvement. Teachers in Hong Kong have been teaching groups of refugees for the last few years. There have been a record number of students and teachers involved in 2006-2007 which is a great reflection on our teachers. The refugee students come from Bangladesh, Congo, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Guinea, Iran, Ivory Coast, Liberia, Nepal, Pakistan, Somalia, Sri Lanka, Togo and Uganda. Classes take place at lunchtimes. Teachers volunteer their free time to teach while the Council supports by providing a classroom.
