Volunteer in Cambodia with Love Volunteers Education Support Program - from just $20 per day!

Do you have a passion for teaching and working with children?

International volunteers play a direct role in changing lives on this amazing program. Love Volunteers work in a school in the country’s capital city, Phnom Penh, assisting in the classroom teaching English skills and other subjects such as computer skills or where the volunteers skills lie. Volunteers are encouraged to bring with them games, songs or teaching materials so they have a true personal impact on the children they teach - fresh ideas are always welcome! The children this amazing volunteer program works with are disadvantaged, often living in poverty volunteers from developed nations will have to see to believe. For young Cambodians, English language and basic computer skills are essential prerequisites for entry into many jobs but the opportunity to learn these is not available to everybody, principally due to cost. By volunteering to teach in Cambodia, participants are giving vital assistance to youngsters towards attaining better future employment.

Goals of this Project:

·       Provide essential teaching to under-resourced schools in Cambodia

·       Provide an educational foundation for vulnerable children to build on and break the poverty cycle

·       Improve the future prospects of the children in Cambodia

·       Enable inter-cultural exchange which benefits both locals and international volunteers alike.
