Overview
Are you passionate about teaching? Do you want to share your teaching skills and time with disadvantaged children in Kenya? If yes, then this volunteer teaching program in Kenya is a perfect fit for you.
Despite being English as an official language, the majority of Kenyan people residing in rural and poorer areas cannot speak and understand the English language. This is because of the poor education system and lack of resources like fluent English teachers. The children from poor family backgrounds cannot study in private schools and in public schools they do not get adequate guidance to improve their English skills. As a result, they are deprived of the light of the English language and won’t have access to the opportunities to lead a meaningful life in the long run.
When you join this program, you will be placed at a local public school. You will assist the local teacher and at times, handle the class on your own. Here your role will be to teach them basic English, encourage them to improve their English conversational skills and organize recreational and artistic activities. Depending on your qualifications you can also teach other subjects like math, science or computers.
Volunteer teaching in Kenya is a very impactful project. Your selfless support will help the underprivileged children improve their English skills and in the long run, find lucrative job opportunities. This helps them to change their family’s living standards and lead a happy and harmonious life.
Important Information
Volunteers must be 18 years old or above. You don’t need any specific training, qualifications or experience beyond this, but native speakers or those with previous teaching experience will have an advantage.
