Specific Skills

JOB REQUIREMENTS Further to Section H above Must have Bach in any field. Fluency in Mandarin Chinese required.br BUSINESS NECESSITY Further to H.13 above FOREIGN LANGUAGE required The employer school teaches students by an EnglishChinese duallanguage immersion education method. For this job of Chinese Lead Classroom Teacher, the requirement for fluency in language is normal to the occupation. This is addressed by the Prevailing Wage Determination Guidance. Page 12 of the Guidance states specifically that A language requirement . . . shall generally be considered a special skill for all occupations, with the exception of foreign language teachers. All Chinese Lead Classroom Teachers teach multiple elementary level subjects including reading and language arts, and also teach Chinese by teaching all subjects in Chinese. Therefore, this application for labor certification is for a foreign language teacher, and the language requirement is a normal requirement and not a special requirement. Additionally, by teaching all subjects in Chinese, the Chinese Lead Classroom Teacher is performing teaching that is critical to the entire education and business model of Washington Yu Ying Public Charter School. At Washington Yu Ying Public Charter School, students in kindergarten through 5th grade learn all subjects in both Chinese and English. To do this, students are split into two small, paired classes, and alternate between their English and Chinese classroom each day, so that in a twoweek period students had equal time with their Chinese and English teachers.
