    Über das Programm

    This volunteer project takes place on the world-famous Galapagos Islands, one of the most amazing destinations in the world! This unique volunteer program allows you to become a teaching assistant at a school on the Galapagos.

    The priority of this educational project is to improve the level of English on the islands, so that they can eventually become less isolated from the mainland. An improved level of English will also enable locals to communicate with tourists, which is essential because tourism is a growing industry within the archipelago. Due to the fact that most schools lack English teachers, volunteers are crucial. Your volunteer work will help the children while also giving you the chance to enjoy the beautiful beaches and exotic nature and animals.

    Volunteers are placed on San Cristóbal Island.

    Throughout this project, you will witness first-hand how important your help is for the children. The children will see you as a role model, so volunteers should take their work very seriously and be responsible.
