Teach English at the community school

Canadá

16 days at the project teaching english and this volunteering truly offered the most authentic experience. I had the privilege to stay with Rita. She is one of the most friendly person I've met in my life. She would make me try tons of food, bring me to cool spots so I can learn about the region and has been truly good at heart with me my whole stay. I have been a whole member of the family, participating in day to day tasks and hobbies. A true rustic Kechwa community, celebrating humanity & eager to share knowledge about culture, wisdom and medicinal plants. Muchas Gracias, Pakra chu! 🫂🌋❤

El voluntariado en el proyeto fué muy valioso. Me recibieron en su propia casa y me incluyeron como una integrante más. Dormí en una tienda equipada en una pieza de la casa, es cómodo para que no te piquen los mosquitos mientras duermes! Tuve la oportunidad de realizar variadas tareas en conjunto con la mamá (Nelly). Desde atender la tienda de artesanías, plantar árboles, cocinar, hacer una compostera, etc. Me fui feliz de aportar en un proyecto ecológico local y conocer a una linda familia:)

This volunteering experience has really been amazing. It's a real amazonian life experience, living with a local family, perfect to know the culture, local stories and live like they do in the amazon rainforest. I quickly felt part of the family. Nelly and Yaku, and their kids, are always there for everything you need and to organize the work based on what you can do. I slept in a fully equipped tent that was big enough for me and all my stuff. For the rest you live just the same comodities as them and the teaching is just as any school in the world: challenging but rewarding!Muchas gracias!:)

Mi experiencia ha sido increíble. Desde que llegué, me explicaron todo muy claro. Me dieron a escoger donde me quería quedar, yo elegí quedarme con ellos. Tenía mi espacio y mi tienda de campaña equipada. Compartir con ellos,ha sido lo mejor. el proyeto, Nelly, Yacuruna,Yacuwarmi, Yura y Alison. Más los papás de Nely y más familiares me han hecho sentir como en casa. Muchísimo cariño les tengo y siempre los llevaré en mi corazón. El voluntariado consta de enseñar inglés en la escuela. Los niños con ganas de aprender y los profesores me hicieron sentir parte del grupo Eternamente agradecida.

El proyeto en un buen lugar para tu iniciar tu recorrido en voluntariado, haces y aprendes de todo un poco. Para alguien que viene de afuera es todo muy interesante, nunca me deje de sorprender. Si te toca voluntariar en la escuela te encontrarás con niños que si están dispuestos a aprender y con algunos que no, lo importante es que vayas con la paciencia y disposición adecuada para enseñar. Me fui triste de allí ya que hice lindos lazos con la familia. Agradezco a Nelly por la muy buena acogida y a los chicos. Espero que el proyeto siga creciendo, tienen un proyecto con mucho power :)

My experience in the project was amazing. Just being there is already interesting, the work and the free time activities were only the extra. The work is fun, there is high variety in the tasks and working with Nelly who has an incredibly positive attitude can't be bad. It's located far from literally everything but the hikes nearby are wowww Muchas gracias por todo!! Espero que nos encontremos en el futuro

The experience was challenging, but definitely worth it. Challenging because the place is located in the middle of the jungle, therefore accommodation is basic (but at least you get a feel of what it really feels like living in the jungle!), and the nearby shops only sell the bare amenities (bread, dried beans, etc.). The teaching itself, though, is rewarding. The kids at the project are keen to learn, and teaching them is a joy. Their level of English is basic, so we mostly played vocabulary games such as mime, hangman, or matching pairs. Seeing them make progress is the best reward!

I really had a great experience at the Yaku the project, the family made me feel like home and I really loved playing with children. It's a great opportunity to connect with nature and to get to know more about the community and how they live. When it comes to the English classes, the level is basic and you are free to do it on your own style, in my case I did a mix of class and games to practice what we saw. I hope to be back one day thank you!

In complete a experience I can fully recommend! My work was a mix of handyman, teaching and painting and I enjoyed it a lot. Only thing I was missing, was the cultural exchange. the project and his family are living quite far away from the volunteer house and the school. So I was not able to connect as much with the family, as I would have liked!
