Program description:

Visit Rajasthan, experience Indian culture and teach underprivileged children while working on community projects in the beautiful city of Udaipur. Take part in weekly workshops including yoga, cookery, dance and arts and craft, as well as Hindi classes, and embark on a four day adventure side trip to explore this majestic and dramatic part of India.

There is still a great deal of poverty in India, and volunteering with the children of this region can make a real difference in schools which are understaffed and find it difficult to give children the individual attention they need for a good education. This project is also a valuable opportunity to study Rajasthani culture, and as such there is plenty of occasions to immerse yourself in a very unique way of life.

*How this program makes a difference*

Local schools are understaffed and under-resourced. At times a single teacher will manage a large number of students as well as administrative duties in the school. GVI volunteers help ease the work load by teaching the students and helping in the classrooms. In recent years, English was introduced into Rajasthan Government Primary Schools, but the teachers are not skilled in teaching English as a foreign language. GVI volunteers are able to expose the students to excellent English language models.
