Education Internships in Accra

Experience living in Ghana as you assist understaffed schools with taking care of the students and teaching them English. This project will allow you to learn more about life in Ghana and the impact that foreign aid has on the community, as you integrate into the school system and work alongside the teachers. During your time at the boarding school (you will be living in a separate location) you will lead educational games and interact with the children, help them learn English and help with some repair work around the school grounds. All this whilst living a stone throws away from stunning beaches!

Our short-term community development internships cover a wide range of projects like women's empowerment initiatives, teaching programs, public health care, or professional development workshop. The exact details will depend on the needs of the local community, as determined by our local partners. This internship is especially suited to gender studies majors, budding lawyers, social workers, psychologists, educators, career breakers, or anyone wanting to make a sustainable difference abroad. This is the career kick-starter you need to improve your employability!
