Send messageProgram Description
Do you love children and want to make a real impact in their lives? Then volunteer and teach English, Music, Drama, Sports to the children of Madurai India.
PROJECT OVERVIEW:
All of our schools are set in and around the small temple town of Madurai - some of them in incredibly scenic areas. Some schools are very poor and lack facilities, so your presence will make a real impact. Nearly all schools have basic facilities (including some general teaching aids and equipment) and others even have sports fields for football and cricket.
You may work in either primary or secondary schools and you will normally help out with all age groups. You can teach a variety of subjects, although English is needed the most.
Your teaching will help the children in so many ways, and they want to learn because they know that the end result will be greater opportunities in life for them, whether career-wise or, for the luckier ones, possibly getting into a better university.
