Our foundation will send the themes & topics, then volunteers are expected to create fun activities to learn English. Volunteers should send information about materials needed a week before arrival, so our team will have time to prepare.

These activities require interesting ideas from volunteers. Our staff will not provide special training for volunteer tasks, but are very open and happy to discuss ideas and information to make classes more interesting based on our experiences.
