INDIA / Global Vision International
This volunteer project will involve teaching in a local school, which is attended by children from underprivileged families. Volunteers will assist local teachers in the classrooms, and also take small-group tuitions and activity sessions before and after school. The focus will be on improving the conversational English as well as introducing arts, sports and other activities.
After volunteering enjoy 2 weeks travelling around Southern India where you will experience island life on a homestay, savour the scents of spice and tea plantations, join pilgrims in Madurai, soak up the French influences in Pondicherry, cycle around the fishing village of Mamallapuram, travel to the Keshava Temple at Somnathpur, safari into the jungle, and learn the secrets of snooker in Ooty.
