Volunteer and Teach English in Nepal
More than 80% of the children from Nepal’s villages and cities are unable to access a good educational system. This is due to a lack of financial and physical resources as well as the remote mountain geography of the country.

great experience
March 16, 2025by: Anita Vencelj - SloveniaProgram: Volunteer and Teach English in NepalVolunteering in Nepal was transformative. I taught English to older women which was a very rewarding experience. Accomodation at local host families gave us a chance to better immerse in their rich culture. Coordinators ensured safety and support throughout my stay there.
Made me feel empowered and confident
July 19, 2024by: Sian MattisProgram: Volunteer and Teach English in NepalIVHQ provided a lot of general information through the website and group video call with the Program Manager. Plus the Program Manager answered any queries I had. The local team was friendly and available to answer any queries. They seemed really knowledgeable and if one member did not have an answer to a question they were able to communicate with someone who did. This experience has opened my eyes to a beautiful country with culture different to what I have grown up with. Also making me aware of the everyday and larger struggles faced by Nepali people and children as well as the joy they contain despite that. It has made me feel empowered and confident in the belief that my actions can have a positive effect on others in whatever capacity. Also solidifying my plans in the future to work in the education sector. All while contributing to the building of my resilience in the face of challenges. For anyone hesitant about joining the program, know you can ask your program manager any questions you have. Also do your own personal research on the placement. This will help you be more aware of what volunteering abroad is like and help to manage your expectations of the experience. Also be open-minded in your approach to becoming closely integrated into a new culture.
I went over thinking I was too old at 57 doing this
June 05, 2024by: Tanya MacGregorProgram: Volunteer and Teach English in NepalThe local team have been absolutely amazing - you can contact them any time with anything. They will make all arrangements no matter what your needs are. I was truly blessed, loved my home stay family. You are treated like family from the minute you arrive. I will miss the family. The women at the centre taught me a lot. They are so grateful to you for spending time to help them. I had so much fun together! Lots of learning but with fun and laughter. I went over thinking I was too old at 57 doing this. How wrong could I be. I have met so many wonderful friends from all over the world. Came away as part of a whole new family. I would say to anyone to go with no expectations and go with the flow. Not to worry as if you have any problems or just need help with little things the support you get from the host family and local team is amazing.
