Teaching
This project gives volunteer teachers the opportunity to live and work on a jewel-like tropical island off the coast of Tanzania.English and maths are two subjects that the schools have challenges in. The number of pupils is big, English is not always spoken by teachers and facilities are basic. You can make a change here by supporting the school and its principal by offering assistance in teaching English. You can also offer sports and games after school hours, as well as simply explaining your own culture to the children.
