Program Details
We are seeking dedicated individuals to join us as volunteer English teachers in Trujillo, Peru. When you volunteer with us, you have the opportunity to work with our team of local and international volunteers in the communities we serve, teaching English both in our English program for school-age children as well as in our evening Conversation Classes for adults. In addition, there are occasionally opportunities to contribute to the efforts of local cycling activist initiatives. We take care to pair volunteers in our programs to help ease any language or cultural barriers that may arise.
