Teaching English

Like in any other developing country in the world, the demand of English is at an all-time high and is growing incredibly in Ghana. The knowledge of English is a gateway to good, high paying jobs, thus this trend has lured the young generation to learn and master the art of speaking good English. Children in Ghana are very eager to learn and improve their conversational English. This project helps the primary and junior secondary school children between the ages of 5-10 and 11-16 to learn English and also get education in math and science. Teaching resources are available for the teachers. Through a partnership with Rustic Volunteer Travel and the local government in Ghana, volunteers can focus on providing new and innovative ways to teach the English language (that you learned in your home country) that they can use with future students, thereby making a long-lasting impact that benefits the entire community.

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.

Please make sure to e-mail your flight information to both the USA office and the local in-country coordinator's office.
