💼 What the programme involves
This teaching program may takes place at a variety of schools, although our primary teaching location is situated in a local village primary school. Here, you will teach English to the approximately 100 children between the ages of 4-12 years.
Even though we do aim to follow a curriculum, we also focus on informal teaching - the classes can vary widely in content - from playing games, sports and music to handicraft making, all whilst using the English language. This means you can get creative and teach them in the way you find best. These classes are meant to improve the English language skills of the children and develop their interests and ambitions in different fields.
