About the project
TEACHING ENGLISH AND INTERACTING WITH CHILDREN
📝 Detailed information
🏢 About the local organisation
Solidarités Jeunesses Vietnam (SJ Vietnam) is an international youth NGO (Non-Governmental Organization) which aims at connecting international and Vietnamese volunteers to work with the most in-need communities. SJ Vietnam was set up in 2004 with the coordination of Mr. Piere de Hanscutter and Ms. Do Thi Phuc.
SJ Vietnam is a full member of CCIVS (Coordinating Committee for International Voluntary Service – UNESCO) and NVDA (Network for Voluntary Development in Asia). It is also a partner of YAP (Youth Action for Peace) and Alliance. International exchanges are managed exclusively within our network of Vietnamese and international partners. Up to now, SJ Vietnam has brought 6,000 volunteers worldwide and across the country to help the children and youngsters from low-income families access better education and proper treatment.
💼 What the programme involves
Most of children in different provinces of Vietnam don’t have the chance to communicate with foreigners regularly. In public schools, they just have one or two English lessons per week. Children are the future of Vietnam, who will lead and develop the country in the future. Therefore, SJ Vietnam would like to call on volunteers to join this significant project to widen English knowledge and English spoken of children in our local community.
Volunteers will teach English, organize leisure and outdoor activities for children, guide them how to use computer, prepare performances with the children for special events and encourage them to speak English by active daily communication.
