Program description:

Volunteer on this GVI project and teach English to children in the Andean communities in the mountains surrounding Otavalo, Ecuador. English is becoming increasingly important at both primary and secondary level education, but the majority of schools do not have qualified English teachers. As a volunteer on this important project, you will first take an Introductory TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) course in Ecuador in preparation. You will then be placed in a class where you will teach in the mornings and spend the afternoon planning the next day’s lessons. An experienced TEFL teacher will be on hand to assist you with both teaching and planning.

*How this program makes a difference*

This teaching project in Ecuador makes a huge difference to the children as they will receive TEFL-trained English tuition. The English they learn is school is often from an Ecuadorian teacher who has no grasp of the English language, and is teaching from a book. By providing the children with natural English teaching, they will have a much greater chance of actually being able to use their English to find better jobs or participate in the global economy later in life.
