🏢 About the local organisation
We try to open the region to the world, through the english language. Busquístar is a small village. It belongs to the province of Granada, and is in the Alpujarras, a remote region, in the south slopes of Sierra Nevada (the highest mountain range in the Iberian peninsula). This town and those in the neighbours, live close to nature, still getting part of their livings from the crops and animals. As mountain villages, they live quite isolated, with scarce contact with the city (Granada).
The idea is to give a good oportunity to the children, youngsters and adults in the area, so that without having to go away, they can learn the english language enjoying the activities we offer to them.
💼 What the programme involves
Volunteers will be teaching english to small groups, using the language as the way of working different activities in various scenes that they can suggest, such us a market place, a bus station, a travel agency, a safary, a theater play, a sports area...
🏠 Accommodation on site
Rural house close to the village (1 km). The volunteers will be cooking for themselves on rota basis. The food will be supplied.
