Program Overview

Volunteers on the Teaching and Education program in Cordoba support schools and community learning centres serving children from low-income neighbourhoods. You will assist teachers with lessons, guide small groups, offer one-to-one support, and help students practise reading, writing, pronunciation, and basic English. Tasks may include preparing materials, leading games or creative activities, supporting homework time, and helping create a positive classroom environment.

This program suits volunteers who enjoy working with children and want to support education. No formal teaching experience is required as local teachers provide guidance. A positive attitude, patience, and willingness to learn are important, and intermediate Spanish is helpful for communication.

Volunteers can join for one to 24 weeks, usually up to five hours per day. Homestay accommodation is included along with airport pickup, orientation, weekday meals, shared accommodation with upgrade options, and ongoing support. In your free time, you can explore Cordoba, visit markets, parks, and cultural sites, enjoy local food, practise Spanish, and experience daily life in Argentina.

An unforgettable, life-changing experience!

Don’t miss out on a life changing experience! Go in with a positive, flexible attitude and an open mind. The experience will leave such an impact on you and the friends that you make along the way will be lifelong. Getting to work with the community first hand and really seeing the impact I made in such a short period of time has inspired me to continue volunteering and giving back to communities that need it most. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing their faces light up with so much gratitude just by being there and I’ll never forget those student's tiny smiles and bright eyes, their happiness was so contagious. Pedro and Nati are also such a warm and loving family and I was made to feel like a member of the family from day one. It’s an experience I’ll cherish always.

Teaching program

My three weeks in Argentina were truly amazing and an experience I will value forever. This was my first experience traveling abroad, which was scary for me, but The IVHQ team made everything so easy for me and they are all great people. I wish I would have stayed longer! I loved interacting with the kids at my teaching placement, and the teaching program was more than rewarding. I would definitely do it all over again!
