Volunteer as an English teacher in Peru. Use your knowledge of the English language, and share it with the Peruvian children. Organize lively and interesting classes, and actively contribute to the education of the Peruvian youth.
In the morning, you will teach English in a public school in Cusco. You will teach together with the local teacher, or with another volunteer. Prepare fun and active lessons, and provide the students with a good foundation. You can teach either in the Primary or in Secondary school.
There is a great need and shortage of good English teachers in Peru. Learning the basics of the language as early as possible in life, will really speed up the learning curve. The opportunity to receive good English classes is rare in Peru. You can actively participate in Teaching English, and have a real impact on these students’ lives. The schools are following a curriculum, and Peru Volunteer has access to basic educational material. Document your progress, so the next volunteer can take over when you leave!
