Trip details

Teach conversational English to young students: You and your teammates can share lessons with children aged 4-13 in classrooms and summer camps in Gazi County. The work sites -- in Gazi city as well as nearby villages -- are located outside Iraklion, all along the Aegean Sea.

You don't have formal teaching experience? Never mind! Any native English speaker can be an important resource. The emphasis is on improving speaking skills and not on formal rules of grammar. Students work with volunteers to learn pronunciation, idioms, and syntax. Besides practice dialogues, lessons may include such fun activities as sports, arts and crafts, and theater. Most of the younger children will have had little, if any, previous English instruction. You'll find them to be eager, and open to new ideas. Volunteers usually teach four hours a day, allowing equal time for preparation and team meetings. Volunteers report this is a fun, stimulating -- and meaningful -- work assignment.
