English Teaching Volunteer programs in Nepal
The Mission in church offers English Teaching Volunteer programs across Nepal. It is an enriching and satisfying experience where volunteers get the opportunity to teach students who are eager to improve their conversational English skills. Students born into the current Nepali school-going generation value their education and are motivated to be taught new things about the world.
Volunteers work either in Nepali public or private schools, in either a regional or urban setting. Our schools are scattered across Nepal, in areas such as Kathmandu, Kathmandu Valley, Chitwan, Pokhora, Hetauda and Nawlprasi. They may also be asked to assist in other school activities such as sports and other extra-curricular projects whilst volunteering.
The program consists of teaching the subject of English to school children for 2 to 4 periods of a day, with each period running for 45 minutes. Volunteers will be required to teach 6 days a week. Saturday is a day off for volunteers to enjoy some free time and there are occasionally public holidays. Most children in private schools have a good command of English but may still need practice and guidance. Government school children have a beginner to moderate level of English knowledge and language. Depending on school size, class numbers vary from 15-25 in private schools to more than 50 in government schools in lowland areas. In more remote areas of Nepal, there can be as little as 15 in a class.
In urban locations like Kathmandu, in the first week a local teacher will assist you to conduct the classes and address any language barriers or concerns if it appears during teaching. You will be asked to run the class once the children become familiar with you. Volunteers shouldn’t be concerned about what to teach, as all private and government schools follow a Nepali curriculum which can be implicated in teaching. However, if one is confident enough, volunteers are more than welcome to apply their own teaching blueprint.
Private schools offer the opportunity to teach other subjects other than English, however due to the language barrier, this option cannot be made available in public schools. If you have additional skills in extra-curricular activities like teaching games, music, painting, singing dancing, yoga, martial arts etc., then you are most welcome to incorporate this into the teaching program. please visit more English Teaching volunteer http://www.missioninchurch.org/teach-english-volunteer
