RPCV-ACC-2017-031
Ken Ng served as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Micronesia from 1975 to 1978. Ng's training in Majuro in the Marshall Islands included the study of the Marshallese language and preparation for teaching. He then worked as a teacher and a teacher-trainer in the outer islands of Arno Atoll, and extended for a third year to teach in Mili Atoll. Six years after returning to the United States, Ng applied to the Peace Corps again. He was offered a unique role as a volunteer in a cooperative venture between the Peace Corps and the United Nations Volunteers (UNV) as a teacher in China (1984-1986). He notes that this was nine years before the Peace Corps began its own programs in China.
