All Children Should Have Equal Opportunity to Learn, Grow, and Realize Their Potential

Nurturing Future Leaders to Bring Education Equity

About Teach For Hong Kong

Teach For Hong Kong (“TFHK”) is a tax-exempt charity under the Hong Kong Inland Revenue Ordinance Section 88 (91/14499). We envision a future where all children in Hong Kong have equal opportunity to learn, grow and realize their potential.

Our mission is to nurture leaders to bring education equity. Since 2015, through our one-year Fellowship Program, we recruit and empower the most promising and passionate young leaders from all sectors to serve in under-resourced schools as full-time teachers. From creating direct impacts in the classroom to advocating for and making changes in society, they are committed to bringing transformational changes to students’ lives.

We continue to build the movement of leaders who work with others, inside and outside of the classroom, to solve education inequity in all of its complexity.

Through the interactions with my students, I was constantly reminded to stay grounded and to always go understand their needs from their perspectives instead of only through theories or assumptions.

It is certainly eye-opening to gain insights from the experiences of guest speakers who are business leaders, entrepreneurs, social innovators, and many more. They inspire me to revisit the meaning of cross-sector collaborations.

Anthony Yiu (Fellow 2023-24)

My year as a TFHK Fellow gave me a multi-sector perspective on education and connected me with people from different backgrounds.

It made me realize the possibility and potential of cross-sector collaboration in the education field.

The experience inspired me not only to become a specialist in a sector but also a cross-sector leader in gathering resources from different parties and contributing to the education field for the future generation.
