Program Details

As a Worldpacker in our home, you’ll join a warm homeschooling family in Malang where learning, culture, and community come together. We expect volunteers who are kind, open-minded, and genuinely enjoy spending time with children. Your main role is to support our daughters’ learning through simple English conversations, creative activities, and sharing your own skills — whether in music, art, sports, storytelling, or any area you’re passionate about.

You may also help with relaxed English sessions for neighborhood kids or small community activities. No teaching experience is required; just patience, initiative, and a willingness to engage in fun, meaningful interactions.
In return, you’ll experience true local life. Our family offers a welcoming, safe, and friendly environment where you’ll feel included in daily routines, cultural experiences, and family activities. Your days will be flexible, with plenty of personal time to explore Malang’s nature, food, and cultural sites.

We value mutual respect, clear communication, and a positive spirit. If you love connecting with children, learning about culture, and being part of a supportive family atmosphere, you’ll feel right at home with us.
