Program description: |
|
|
The Philippines is made up of over 7,000 tropical islands stretching across a vast expanse of ocean in Southeast Asia. Its diverse ecosystems along with its even more diverse cultural history make it one of the most fascinating destinations in the world. As home to lively festivals, friendly people, cities and villages, beautiful beaches, tropical rainforests, volcanoes, waterfalls, and coral reefs teeming with life, the Philippines is truly a unique jewel in the South China Sea.
Volunteer on the island of Leyte, for an unforgettable and meaningful way to experience the Philippines, its culture, and people. Volunteers help shape young lives in the Philippines by sharing their English skills and teaching talents. They teach English and many other subjects to elementary school children from 5-12 years of age. Native or fluent English speakers with or without formal teaching experience can contribute greatly to a child’s educational development. Volunteers assist local teachers in the instruction of classes, which typically range in size from 20 to 30 pupils.
