📝 Detailed information
💼 What the programme involves
Apprentis d’Auteuil is a Foundation composed of more than 200 youth centers. Its goals are to welcome, educate, train and insert more than 30,000 young people in distress and accompany their families in building a safe environment at home. We help them gain confidence in themselves and the adult world. We develop the individual talents and personal skills of each young person and help them find their place both professionally and personally. The volunteer will more specifically work in Lycée professionnel Notre-Dame, in La Loupe.
Your main mission will be to accompany underprivileged young people in their school lives, trainings and their insertion. More especially, you will: Assist teachers during language English classes and collaborate with them (preparing pupils to Erasmus mobility in Poland or school travel); Co-construct activities with young people during classes; Set up projects with an educational, sports or cultural / intercultural focus.
🏠 Accommodation on site
Site accessible by train or by bus. The volunteer will have a furnished room onsite in the castle with a shared kitchen and bathroom (with washing machine). He/she will receive money to prepare their meals for dinner and weekends and lunch will be taken at the self-service restaurant. A bike will be at the volunteer disposal during the entire mission.
All of the information will be communicated prior to arrival and the volunteer will be accompanied in the visit of his accommodation in order to answer his questions, to explain the functioning of the different elements (water, electricity...)
🎒 Leisure activities
The French national agency for ESC projects will run 2 seminars in which the volunteer will be invited to take part. Also, you will have access to the OLS platform which offers online French trainings during your mission.
⚠️ Requirements
The Participant profil: We are looking for a good English speaking volunteer. We expect the volunteer not to speak French in front of the students so the young people have to communicate in English. These missions are particularly suitable for any candidate who wants to open up to others, is keen to human relations, and eager to discover the social and teaching professions.
The volunteer who would like be involved in this mission should appreciate working with teenagers, have a certain ability to listen, and have skills in animation and school support. Having a basic level of French is not mandatory but recommended.
