Travel to Morocco for a volunteer project geared toward children from modest backgrounds and attending public schools. As a volunteer, you will help acquire or improve the language skills they would otherwise not get. Schools teach French at a young age, but not up to high standards. English and Spanish are taught much later despite the vast opportunities these languages offer. Plus, local teachers find it challenging to teach an often overcrowded classroom with various abilities and ages. Based in Rabat, this teaching project welcomes international volunteers of all backgrounds. Bring your creativity to assist teachers and raise the standards of language classes. Unleash students' potential and help them learn English or French more efficiently. You will have the freedom to create and deliver your lessons. Mastery of your native language is a requirement to join this project. Also, patience and a love for teaching and mentoring will help you be successful during the placement.

This meaningful program was created to hone the English-speaking abilities of some of Phnom Penh's poorest residents. Education is key to breaking this seemingly endless poverty cycle, yet sadly, having access to native-speaking teachers is (more often than not) a luxury only available to children of wealthy parents. In collaboration with our local partner agency and international participants, Love Volunteers aims to change that by giving access to English-speaking teachers and classroom assistants. This project works with schools to reach over 1,000 children ages 6 to 12, hoping they ultimately take the first step toward a life free of poverty. Volunteers share their English knowledge and skills, making a positive and long-lasting impact on the lives of some of Cambodia’s poorest youth.

Volunteers taking part in short-term volunteer projects in Germany will be responsible for teaching one-to-one conversational English courses to students at the Center, as well as instructing small groups (anywhere from 2 – 5 students). Students come from a plethora of backgrounds, with ages ranging anywhere from 12 – 70 years old. However, most students will be migrants or the children of migrants, hailing from various Arab countries. Volunteers will not only serve as teachers, but also as cultural diplomats who represent their home country to the community in Halle (Saale). They play an important role in helping with communal activities meant to increase cross-cultural exchanges. In addition to teaching, volunteers will enroll in German language courses (3 hours a week). The advent of additional language courses is meant to further immerse them in local Arabic/German culture, allowing them to better communicate with their students, as well as locals in Halle. The Volunteer to Teach English and Learn German language program spans anywhere from 1 – 12 weeks, with volunteers staying with local host families during their time in Halle (Saale).

A Guide to Volunteering as a Tutor Abroad
Why Volunteer Abroad as a Tutor
Volunteering abroad as a tutor will give you the opportunity to change, shape, and morph the educational lives of others. Many tutoring volunteer programs place volunteers directly with local students and teachers in classrooms; as a tutoring volunteer, individuals will have the chance to work with students one-on-one without the influence and distractions of other kids, which is beneficial for both students and tutors.
Tutor volunteering with kids in a private setting allows volunteers to work individually with students and really hone in on areas they are struggling in; this can mean helping a student with homework in all subjects and developing practical studying methods or being a specific tutor for math class. One of the great things about being a volunteer tutor abroad is that you’ll have the rare opportunity to really change your students and make a big difference for them on an individual level.
Now, why become a volunteer tutor abroad when you can do all this at home? Different countries each have their own education systems and structures; especially if you want to someday get involved in education, you should broaden your tutoring horizons as much as possible. Even if you merely just want to build your resume, employers will favor you over the competition because you have experience abroad. In other words, you’ve had exposure to other cultures, stepped out of your comfort zone, and did something not everyone can do.
