Program Details

This is a entrepreneurship of an English program for kids in a small city in the center of Mexico.
We teach little kids and adults in a small Academy in Comonfort, Guanajuato.

The purpose of inviting volunteers is to increase the chances of these kids to be exposed to speak and comprehend English, see the importance of a second Language, motivate them to learn new stuff and have friends from all over the world.
For older students it’s also important to improve their fluency.
Parents of the group are excited for their kids about having guests around and they want to make friends.


Activities & Shift

This is a potential project to create a Ludotec or a small English Academy. So we need professors to teach English some hours in the morning.

Our Summer Camp is in July, which starts at 8:30am and we have to drive about 30 min to get to the place. I own a car but sometimes we have to commute. Probably for this course I will rent a Van to take all of us (the staff) to the Summer Camp.
There are many activities during the morning, you Can also sugest some to teach something to the kids. The day includes yoga kids, skating, painting, cooking, etc.
Kids have a break around 10:00am or 10:30am to have a snack, also we the staff can get something to Eat.
The activities with kids end at 1:30pm and we leave the place around 2pm to get lunch.
