English Teacher in Mountain Village in Peru!

---

L'expérience

This opportunity is ideal for those who wish to practice their English teaching skills in a remote mountain town, five hours away from Huanchaco. The school doesn’t have enough money to employ well qualified teachers and there is also a problem of finding teachers who are willing to work in the mountains. As a result the primary and secondary schools in the village are understaffed and the children do not receive much English language education.

Détails du programme

The role of the volunteer is to give English classes at the school, however you can also teach Arts, Physical Education or any other subject. In the summer 2009 Otra Cosa donated to the secondary school some new musical equipment (a keyboard, guitars, flutes, clarinet, trumpets, horns, bass drum, small drums). If you play an instrument and you would like to teach the children feel free to organize lessons.

English is not only important for the children of Yanasara but also for adults, who hope to be able to welcome tourists visiting the hot springs. It is possible to teach them too. In the near future we hope to offer teaching opportunities in schools within the informal settlements around Huanchaco.

Please note that all volunteer positions are also available as Internships. With this add-on you will receive an extra level of mentorship.
