  • Description

    Volunteers will teach conversational English, Math, or Science to students who are between the ages of 5 -10 in primary schools and 11-16 in junior secondary schools.

    They will also read literature and improve the low comprehension level and poor pronunciation of students, provide theoretical and practical assistance and aide the teachers and interact with the students. Typical day involves eating breakfast early morning and then going to teach the students for the first half of the day. After lunch, volunteers will then help other teachers in school and arrange extracurricular activities like games in the school.
