Volunteer teaching program in Ghana

About the product
Volunteers are placed in urban and rural communities in Ghana where they would teach English as well as other subjects to the local children. As a volunteer you will be teaching English and other subjects such as Mathematics, ICT, Science and General Knowledge to the children. The knowledge, skills and ideas that volunteers from other cultures can bring to a Ghanaian student is invaluable for the students.
Volunteers mainly teach the various children in the various villages. Although English is the official language of Ghana, the children rarely get to learn from non-Ghanaian speakers of the language. Volunteers help children who are ready to learn and the volunteers should necessary not come from the native speaking English.
Volunteers find themselves teaching children who have no roof on their head that is the kids who are in the open air to learn with no pencil or chalkboard. The lesson plan with the help of the local school and OGVO will be provided including teaching curriculum.
Creativity and improvisation teaching methods are the key and can challenge the experienced teacher but the result are truly amazing.
Classes are normally in five sessions a week with volunteers asking five hours to teach in all the five days of the week. Volunteers are allowed to bring their teaching aids such as picture books, flash cards, art supply, instruments etc.
