The schools throughout Nepal are in desperate need of extra help with their English, Maths, Science, Sports, Music, Dance and ICT classes. English increasingly becomes the language of business and opportunity. Fluency in English creates more opportunities for children when they leave school. Math is always something that teachers find complicated to teach and many teachers do not have any experience in ICT. Train: Observe the teachers and give feedback You will be responsible for training teachers, sit in with lessons and conducting showcase lessons in your preferred subject. If you have 2 months or more to spend at the school then you can help plan the subject curriculum for the term or year. We like to encourage you to bring new and innovative teaching methods to the classrooms. They help the school determine what resources are needed and how to get hold of them. Teach: Give classes on your own As a teacher, you look at where the need is most in terms of teaching and step in where is needed. Sometimes there are not enough teachers and you will teach a class yourself. It is also possible that the teacher is there and you will teach the class together. The teacher can learn from your teaching methodologies by observing and joining the teaching. Assist: assistant teacher As an assistant, you will work alongside a local teacher helping with all the subjects. We encourage you to think of creative ways to help to teach the children, for example, to bring in new teaching resources. The age of the children varies from 4 to 16 years. You can decide which age group you like to assist.
