Cultural exchange: teach us English or French!
The experience
We are a little and grassroots community organization based in southern Morocco, without lots of resources (we live day by day to make the projects go on), but with enthusiastic and well-skilled staff.
We have been hosting volunteers from other countries since 2000. We are looking forward to meeting people to teach different languages and practice them with people in our community !

The organization can offer a certificate if the volunteer asks for one.
We may be able to organize tourist tours for them with one or more of our organization members to discover the beauty of the region(the group shares the expenses ) .
Activities & Shift
We value the time our volunteers put into the work they do here. (most of the volunteers after experiencing the difficulties we face to keep our association open donate or help to pay for the rent when they leave). We would like to ask you to help us with a small donation fee of 10€ a day to keep our place open.
We need help teaching languages: especially English, French . But if you are thinking of staying more than 4 weeks and want to teach any other language you ask us on how we can organize things together.
Help locals improve the skills that they had already got at school mainly by "Practicing with them", while having fun.
Rules
- we highly appreciate you to discuss the plans you make with local friends (you will make many nice friend here and they will invite you) with the volunteers coordinator .
- we are an NGO working in education field so you need to pay attention for your habits,clothes,and topics you discuss with the kids(to avoid that our association be closed by the authorities)
- tattoos must be covered, no piercings other than earrings for females and none for men.
-we will appreciate if you avoid talking about world packers to people because we only receive friend or friends of our friends not from an open platform (crazy but it's this way in some countries like ours)
