We are thrilled to say that we have received 125+ applications from 25 different countries from all over the world by featuring 13 CanopyLAB ambassadors, so you can get to know more about them and what fuels their passion to take action during COVID-19. They have helped us get in touch with local educational institutions, spread awareness about the importance of online learning, and have also become role models for other students on our free and open learning platform the LAB.
On behalf of the entire CanopyLAB Team, Thank you.

I’m a Ph.D. student from Peking University. I’ve been focusing on improving “Quality Education” for years as an AIESEC member. As China was the first country to employ “lockdown” measures for COVID-19 prevention, I quickly realized that online educational resources provided by CanopyLAB will benefit us a lot! I’m glad to join this amazing program!
Detian Hu
Beijing, China
I am an English teacher and hold two MA degrees in Applied Linguistics and TESOL. I am also conducting research on the correlation between FLL and cognition and social wellbeing for older adult learners. For me learning is a never-ending journey, I am happy to be a part of it. This exact reason is why I was interested in the CanopyLAB Volunteer Ambassador Program. I discovered it is an extremely useful tool to continue gaining and providing knowledge during these hard times of isolation due to COVID-19 pandemic. The LAB especially includes numerous courses, which I can use in my own online lessons, as well. Hence, I found myself being both a teacher and a student and managing to keep education on track while staying safe at home. It is very enjoyable and I highly recommend it to teachers and students alike.

I’m currently a junior university student majoring in English translation. I love interpreting and translation which explains why my ideal orientation is to be an interpreter and translator in the future. When it comes to why I joined this program, what inspired me most will be my passion for teaching and education. I figure that associating technology with education is and will be the most constructive for kids or whoever desires knowledge in the world.

One day I was sitting on my bed as I watched the number of cases soar. I wanted to help out in some way during this pandemic. I wanted to help people understand the correct way of staying healthy and safe during this difficult time. I searched for volunteering opportunities in which I can either help tutor or help others learn about interesting topics during this time. That’s when I came across CanopyLAB. I read a little bit about the program and then signed up to become an ambassador and since then I have loved the environment CanopyLAB has and their passion for helping others during the COVID-19.
