    Über das Programm

    If you are passionate about education and eager to expand access to schooling in underserved Tanzanian communities, then join our teaching project! You’ll be supported by the local team and placement staff. Prior teaching qualifications are not required, although some relevant experience or training would be beneficial.

    This a wonderful opportunity to support schools in Arusha, where classes are often large and understaffed. Volunteers gain valuable teaching experience by leading classes or assisting local teachers across various subjects.

    You can also choose to work in schools catering to students with disabilities, providing crucial attention and support to help them thrive academically and personally.

    In Tanzania, children cherish their school experience and value the education they receive. However, many teenagers leave school to help support their families. Volunteers contribute a diverse perspective to children’s education, nurturing their enthusiasm for learning, expanding their horizons, and encouraging them to pursue further education for a brighter future.

    You will work in English-medium or government schools. These schools typically have crowded classes with 30 to 50 students, where volunteers play a significant role in enabling more personalized teaching. You will assist local teachers or lead classrooms in various subjects, including:

    • English
    • Math
    • Science
    • Geography
    • History
    • Art
    • Physical education

    Volunteers also have the chance to support students with a range of mental and physical disabilities at a special needs school, where these students require substantial attention and assistance in their studies. If you have experience working with individuals with disabilities or are interested in this option, please specify in your application.

    Please note that schools in Tanzania follow varying holiday schedules, which may lead to temporary closures of your project.

    There are many exciting places to explore in the surrounding areas, here are just a few!

    Ngorongoro Conservation Area

    Home to the Ngorongoro Crater, this stunning area of vast plains, green forests and wild savannahs, sits next to the Serengeti National Park. You will see the highest concentration of animals here from lions, zebra, wildebeest and elephants. The views from the crater are absolutely stunning, with an atmospheric mountain backdrop. This should be at the top of your bucket list for Tanzania!

    Serengeti National Park

    Another one for your bucket list and a perfect way to spend your weekend off. The Serengeti is home to an abundance of wildlife, including the big 5 (lion, rhino, leopard, buffalo & elephant). You will also find zebra, wildebeest, giraffes, hippos, baboons, hyenas, ostriches and many more incredible animals. The best way to explore is by camping out in the open or in one of the many lodges. The area is huge, and we recommend at least 2 days here.

    Moshi and Mount Kilimanjaro

    Moshi is about a two and half hour drive from Monduli and can be easily reached using a “dala dala” or taxi to Arusha and then changing again onto Moshi from there.

    Moshi is a quiet town with several Western cafes and coffee shops. It is also the closest town to the starting point of the Mount Kilimanjaro trek. On a clear day, you can get excellent views of Kilimanjaro right from the roadside (Tip: Moshi Train Station, which is no longer is use, has fantastic views of Africa’s highest mountain, with locals selling drinks and snacks up the top).

    Arusha National Park and Mount Meru

    Mount Meru is located in Arusha National Park and is the second largest mountain in Tanzania. If you’re looking to Climb Kilimanjaro ,then Mt Meru can be a great acclimatisation trek, taking you through various types of vegetation. There are also scenic trails around the mountain at ground level. Other attractions include Meru Crater, the Jekukumia River, Ngurdoto Crater and the Momelia Lakes which are known to change colour! You might even find wildlife here including giraffes, warthogs, cape buffaloes, lions, elephants, flamingos and more.

    Zanzibar

    A little further afield, it is still possible to fly to Zanzibar for a weekend from Arusha (although several days here would be ideal). Zanzibar is known for its sandy white beaches, turquoise water and unique culture. Stone Town is an interesting town, known for its mazes and spices. Other things to do is a visit to Prison Island, where prisoners were once held but is now home to giant tortoises. You can also spot dolphins and try snorkelling off the island. The North and East of Zanzibar have some of the best and cleanest beaches in the world.
