Description: Help shape young lives in Nepal through teaching and listening. Volunteers teach English to elementary school children ranging in age from 6-13 years. Many schools lack the funding to provide effective English language training. Native or fluent English speakers with or without formal teaching experience can contribute greatly to a child's educational development.

Most schools in Nepal follow fixed courses for teaching English. Volunteers teach school courses in collaboration with local English teachers. Volunteers are also encouraged to coordinate additional activities such as games, painting, health education, or other activities. Volunteers typically teach 2-3 hours a day for six days a week.

Highlights: For programs of 6 weeks or longer, a two week language and culture orientation is included.   Participants for less than 6 weeks will receive a shorter orientation of 3-4 days.

Qualifications: Applicants should have:
* A desire to help the children of Nepal
* Flexibility
