The Experience

There are 3 classes: 3-year-olds, 4-5-year-olds, and 6 years and above. You can choose where to help. You don’t need to be a professional teacher, just have lots of love for the kids—they will return it. Basic Spanish is needed for communication, but fluency isn't required. You won’t be left alone with a whole class, but it's helpful if you can take the initiative with your teaching ideas. The focus will be on reading, writing, math, and English.

From the first day, I felt comfortable with the project and the international volunteers. The weekly work schedule provided clarity for the upcoming week. The program organizer effectively managed scheduling to ensure successful completion of tasks. The work environment was friendly, with volunteers supporting each other. After four weeks, my Spanish speaking skills have improved. The accommodation exceeded my expectations, and the hot meals at lunch and dinner were excellent. The full kitchen was available for volunteers to use. I'm planing to come back to the project in the future.

It has been a wonderful experience volunteering at the project. You get to see real life in Peru. Plus I've had the chance to teach math, something I never imagined I will do. It was very rewarding to see kids make progress. Rosemary is a very nice, kind and giving person, it was great meeting her. Maybe the only downside is that my Spanish is not good enough and I could not contribute as much as I wanted. The kids speak just Spanish, so if you want to be 100% useful speaking Spanish helps.

I loved my stay at the project! Everyone is really kind and appreciative of the volunteers. I had a great experience teaching the children English and engaging with them during class. Next to the teaching there are also other wonderful projects to help the mothers of the children. The workload is a bit more than the 20 hours a week that are mentioned, but I did not mind personally. There was plenty of time to explore the city too. Thank you to the organisation and especially Rosmery for the amazing work you do!!

If you are looking for a life-changing experience, the project is for you! Be prepared that the area of the school is really poor, so you will experience different standards during your stay. The kids at school are comfortable being around volunteers, they show a lot of affection. Learning about their lives made me understand how much they need the community of the project.
