ESL teachers to volunteer on small projects in underdeveloped countries

Original Volunteer has recruited ESL teachers to volunteer on small projects in underdeveloped countries for nearly 15 years. Sending volunteers to countries all over the world focusing on education projects and community development.

The Cambodia project involves teaching English as a second language to children who come voluntarily after school for classes. Volunteers work in schools in the south of the country.

With basic English, children are able to gain scholarships for higher education, gain better jobs in towns and cities and entre into the growing world of tourism.

A position has opened up for a long stay volunteer to help and assist the programme director, currently in Cambodia in the form of a team leader. The role would involve teaching your own class with new arrival volunteers sitting in and learning from you how to teach an ESL class.

Alongside teaching how to teach to new volunteers, team leaders help new volunteers settle onto the project and continue to give positive feedback on their teaching during their stay.
