TEACHING: Challenging Projects with Underprivileged Communities around the World
Teach your choice of subject to children and adults, usually in the poorer section of society, in Schools, Orphanages, Social Care Centres, Crèches. Children’s Homes, and more, and always with the objective of helping the local community. You’ll benefit the children and also gain valuable skills and experience yourself. Your help is always appreciated because the schools generally have a lack of teachers, high illiteracy rates and poor funding. Teaching the children is hugely satisfying, a high feel-good factor!
You don't need any qualifications to teach. You’re there to assist with conversational English. We have teaching projects in many countries, the hardest part is choosing! If you'd like any help, guidance or advice, please contact us by phone, Skype or email. We're here to help you. If you're a teacher taking a break, you may like to know that many schools regard our teaching programmes as professional development, and that this may be used in appraisals or performance management interviews.
