Teach English in Guatemala
This volunteer project offers you a fascinating glimpse into the country's culture and the opportunity to give much needed help by teaching English in Guatemala. In the suburbs around Guatemala City and near Lake Atitlan, elementary schools have a serious need for volunteer teachers. In a very casual environment with basic materials, you will teach English and lead activities like sports, arts, music and dance. You may even accompany them on occasional field trips to the zoo and nearby volcanoes. i-to-i TEFL training is included.

Travellers Point
Volunteer Teaching English in Antigua, Guatemala
In Guatemala you can teach conversational English, Music, Drama, Maths, and more, to children and adults.
The schools are very colourful and often classes take place outdoors.
Most of the schools we work with are based in the beautiful small city of Antigua, but some are in pueblos on the edge of the city. The city itself is only about 2 kilometres long!
On average, class sizes range from 8 to 15 pupils, with ages from 6 upwards. The children's levels of English could be anything from beginner through to reasonably advanced.

Volunteer Adventures
English Teaching Program in Guatemela
Teach English to children in need when you volunteer with our Teach English Program in Guatemala.
You will be working with local teachers and students at our partner organization in Antigua, Guatemala. The majority of the population in Guatemala is under 18, and many young people are in great need of help. Many of these children are far below the poverty level, or even on the streets, and education for some is not even an option, much less a priority. As a volunteer with our Teach English Program, you will have the opportunity to give these children the education and support they need and deserve.
You will be able to join an established teaching project or have the unique opportunity to organize an English program on your own. In addition to teaching English, you will be working to create a positive learning environment for the children through games, activities, crafts and stories. As a volunteer with our Teach English Program, you will not only further the chances that these underprivileged children have to succeed, but you will also be a positive role model affecting them for the rest of their lives.
