Teach English in Ecuadorian Jungle

Make a difference to Ecuadorian children living in the jungle villages. Families and children living in the Ecuadorian jungles are considered to be the poorest of the poor in Ecuador. These children are considered at-risk children and come from impoverished environments and many also have been abused. Children in the jungle regions of Ecuador do not have the opportunities that children in urban areas of Ecuador have. Rustic has partnered with a Christian community school near Tenas that provides housing and schooling for these children. Volunteers are needed to teach English to the children. Learning English will help better position these children for a promising future. In addition volunteers may teach other subjects such as math or may participate in after school activities with the children.

Arrival Point:

Airport Pick-up:

Upon the receipt of your flight information, our in-country coordinator or other project staff will greet the volunteers in the airport and take you to your project site. The address and telephone number of the local contact hotel will be given before departure just in case volunteers miss our representative in the airport. Please make sure to e-mail your flight information to both the USA office and the local in-country coordinator's office.

Airport Drop:

Rarely, a few do request an escort back to the airport; this is an extra expense of about $75.  Most are very familiar and comfortable with their stay and have great ease taking their own taxi or bus back to the airport.
