📝 Detailed information
🏢 About the local organisation
Nepal Volunteers and Cultural Youth Exchange Program (NVCYE Program) is a non-profit organization registered with the social welfare Council of Nepal government. It was established in 2004 with the aim of empowering local communities to implement and organize community development, education and conservation projects. It has also dove several Workcamps in rural parts of Nepal.
Montessori or Preschool in Nepal, in general, children are taught to use their five senses to learn. It is not just about the teaching process; it is also about getting them accustomed to school in future. Rather than through reading materials, the Montessori teach children by seeing, hearing, tasting, touching and smelling. But to do so, the children need time, which is why in many cases they are allowed to do whatever they want while learning.
Moreover, in the Montessori education system, children are taught through experimental methods. They do not have to carry or read books. They are encouraged to learn through Montessori learning styles and other art and craft teaching styles.
💼 What the programme involves
• Helping teachers with daily classroom activities, supporting students with their work, and preparing educational materials.
• Assisting in the development and implementation of lesson plans and providing one-on-one support to students who need extra help.
• Program Development: Contributing to the creation of new programs or activities that align with Montessori principles, such as arts and crafts, outdoor play, or practical life skills.
