I am Phyo Sandar Soe. I am the assistant general secretary of the Council of Trade Unions of Myanmar. I live in New Zealand. I was given safe haven here by the previous Government because as a Human Rights Defender my life was at risk from the military regime.
I wish to ask ESOL/ESL teachers in NZ to take part in a project I am coordinating to assist the democracy movement in Myanmar.
For the last four years our people have resisted the brutal military junta. We are determined to restore peace and human rights to our country, and establish a federal democracy where all the country’s peoples can live in harmony. To help strengthen our movement we have put together a project to build the skills of our emerging leaders. English language training is critically important because it will then open our young leaders to a world of information and educational opportunities. Our plan is to have qualified Kiwi ESOL teachers taking volunteer weekly online teaching sessions with our young leaders in Myanmar.
Anyone interested can contact me directly: Phyo Sandar Soe or +64 0225947596
Thank you for your assistance.
