  • Description

    Volunteers are going to work as English language teachers in different parts of Mongolia. Many schools in Mongolia teach English. But not all of them have a native English language teachers. We don't ask you if you have TEFL training or previous teaching experience. If you have it that's great. But we ask you to be willing to work with Mongolian kids and teach them English.

    Most of the class sizes consist of 16 to 30 pupils. But no need to be scared of the big numbers. The kids are very enthusiastic to study English. They will treat you with respect. Teaching pupils English isn't limit to grammar or tests. You can teach them songs, games and even sports.
