Volunteers on the teaching program in Tanzania assist with the teaching of different subjects in Tanzanian elementary and high schools.
Volunteer teachers can teach mathematics, science, geography, social sciences, history, business education, English, art and music. Volunteer teachers are not required to have teaching experience.
Our volunteers work in schools with students who come from very difficult economic circumstances or are orphans.
You will teach English, Math and Science subjects to nursery, primary or secondary school pupils. As a volunteer teacher, you will also assist in organizing various extracurricular activities and carry out administrative duties. Your volunteer work will be in schools located in disadvantaged areas. By working here, you will enrich the lives of the destitute children who depend on our volunteer programs for their future.
Volunteer’s life on the field
| Once you get over the initial culture shock of coming and working in Tanzania, you will realize that helping the orphans, children will give you immense satisfaction and you will view life with a different perspective. A typical volunteer helping in an orphanage or by Teaching English would help the children with their day to day activities such as: doing homework, making notes, playing with children, helping staff organize the orphanage, providing mental and physiological support, exchanging cultural views, teach them about health and hygiene. |
