Company : Love Volunteers
Activities: Volunteer with Children / Teach English
Location : Indonesia - Bali, Ubud Village
Duration: 2 weeks to 1 year
Approx Costs: 500 to 1500 $ Dollars (US)
This inspiring teaching project is located in what has been described as the heart of Bali.
Ubud is a serene town, famous as a self-awareness center and surrounded by rain-forest and terraced rice paddies, and dotted with Hindu temples and shrines. A mecca for those on a spiritual journey, Ubud has a thriving tourism scene. Unfortunately, while the tourism dollar keeps the town humming, there is still poverty among its people, with much help needed to teach and support its youth.
As a tourism hot-spot, those seeking employment in Bali find that English is an essential skill, one that they must speak fluently and confidently. This program supports this need by providing volunteers to work with local children and help set the foundations for a better life. Located in a traditional rural village just outside Ubud, volunteers will teach students in a classroom made from locally harvested bamboo, in a tropical forest setting surrounded by banana, coco, coffee and paw paw trees.
This project is a great way for international volunteers to learn more about the Balinese people and culture, teach those in need and spend time exploring this magical location.
This project is available year-round and programs start every SATURDAY. Volunteers can choose to participate for periods ranging from 2 weeks to 12 weeks. Longer stays can be arranged directly with the local team, but will be subject to availability and individual visa conditions. Spaces on this project are limited and therefore subject to availability. Early booking is recommended.
Love Volunteers welcomes all those 18 years and over who wish to help create a brighter future for children through the power of education. This project best suits those with experience and/or qualifications in the field of childhood development and education, though volunteers who simply wish to explore an interest in this field are also welcomed as there are many ways you can assist in the classroom. Whist not mandatory, completing a TEFL course prior to joining this project would prove to be highly beneficial. Ideally, volunteers on this project will have at least a basic knowledge of the local language in order to communicate effectively with staff and students, though this is not a pre-requisite. Importantly, all applicants must first and foremost have a genuine willingness to help, show drive and initiative, and bring a positive 'can-do' attitude. If this sounds like you, we want you on the team!
