Our Uganda teaching volunteer program is an enriching and satisfying experience where the volunteer can teach children eager to improve their conversational skills, worldwide knowledge, and environment. If you are a qualified teacher, an educated individual experienced in a specific subject area or just seeking to lend a helping hand in a school setting, then our teaching volunteer project in Uganda is what you are seeking. You have the option of volunteering in either elementary schools, primary schools, or high schools, with students ranging from the ages of 3-19. No qualifications or experience are required for a general teaching volunteer project. That means if you wish to assist, take part in lessons, and teach/mentor students under the supervision of local teachers and other guided tasks, then you will not need qualifications. Assignments for qualified teachers, however, require you to be certified by an accredited institution.

Where to Teach Abroad in Uganda
Uganda is a landlocked country in Eastern Africa. The country is known for its large lakes, including Lake Albert, Lake Edward, and Lake Kyoga, in addition to the infamous Lake Victoria. Uganda is situated at the East African plateau, and while largely equatorial, it still experiences sporadic rainfall throughout the year. Here are the best places to teach abroad in Uganda.
Mukono District. You’ll find this site in south central Uganda, where Mukano is the main commercial center and the district’s headquarters, and the population is around 600,000.

Natural lovers and adventure enthusiasts will rejoice with Lake Victoria’s plethora of watersports as well as Sezibwa Falls, which has a natural forest reserve with trails and walkways, ample birdwatching and forest exploration, and a cultural site of artifacts, century-old trees, and caves.
