Description

Teach English in Chile for summer, 6 or 12 months! Participants will work in rural communities in Chile. Volunteers will assist one or more current residential English teachers at their prospective school and teach English to a class of 40-45 students. Volunteers will work with half of the class while the resident English teacher will work with the other half. In addition, volunteers are responsible for the development of extracurricular activities such as after-school English clubs, art projects, science, and sports clubs. Volunteers will work 25 hours a week in the classroom, with the focus on improving the students' listening and speaking skills, and they will prepare lesson plans and activities that encourage language production such as dialogues, games, pronunciation activities, debates, role playing, and conversation groups. Volunteers can expect to work 10 additional hours a week collaborating with Chilean EFL teachers for the planning and the development of extracurricular activities.
