Medical Is this non clinical volunteering or teaching?

[Question]

I have spent around two years teaching refugee adults. I tutored one gentleman for the US citizenship test (which he passed!) and another in learning English. Do these count as teaching or service since it was to a disadvantaged community?

IMO: It is teaching, though I recognize they importance with working with refugees. You are coming in as an expert rather than to help them with other areas of distress such as housing or food.

Competency:
Service Orientation: Demonstrates a desire to help others and sensitivity to others’ needs and feelings; demonstrates a desire to alleviate others’ distress; recognizes and acts on his/her responsibilities to society; locally, nationally, and globally.

I think you could credibly list it as either, depending on how you portray it

Agree. Could be either depending on how you explain things.
