     Zhonghua Scholarship is established by Cross Culture
     Education Center of Washington (WCCEC) in cooperation with
     educational institutions in China. It is dedicated to
     English speakers who are interested in Chinese language and
     culture and wish to see China with their own eyes, providing
     them with the opportunity to live in China, study in China
     and have a cultural tour (depending on the program) of
     China.  As part of the cultural exchange, recipients are
     required to conduct some ESL classes for K-12 students, the
     total time of which is limited to 15 hours per week. For
