The UJC NETTs (Native English Teen Tutors) program is for teens who have celebrated B’nai Mitzvah and want to engage in meaningful Tikkun Olam. Participants also get to enjoy Shabbat lunch, engage in Jewish learning, and spend time together.
UJC NETTs travel to Tin Shui Wai five or six times during the academic year where they meet with the local teens at HLC (Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups Lee Shau Kee College) and spend the morning helping in the school’s Extended English Program. After each session of tutoring, teens from The UJC gather at the Rabbi’s flat for Shabbat lunch and a learning session that will provides a Jewish context for the important work they are doing and enables them to understand their role in Tikkun Olam.
