Program Details

It is a wonderful opportunity to teach and in exchange volunteers can stay in our apartment, and a meal per day is included. On the weekends, we do activities like rock climbing, rappelling, horseback riding, hiking, or teachers can arrange their leisure-time themselves.


Activities & Shift

We provide a teaching training program before volunteers start teaching. Volunteers teach English 4 hours per day. Lesson plans are already designed for a 1 hour and 45 minutes class and all the resources are provided. Our classrooms are equiped with a laptop, video projector and WIFI. Our groups are small around 6 students per class.


Rules

• Perform the teaching experience role to the best.
• Meet the time commitments and standards which have been mutually agreed to and to give reasonable notice so other arrangements can be made when this is not possible.
