OverviewJoin our teaching program at a local school in Lovina, on Bali’s northern beaches. You can teach a variety of English-based subjects, creating engaging and fun lessons to children from the local area, aged from 5-12 years.
You have the option to teach alongside another volunteer or lead a class by yourself. Each class has around 25 students, who are eager to learn through play-based and fun activities. You’ll volunteer for around 4 hours a day, and that includes time in the morning to create your lesson plans. For those with little experience, you will have guidance on how to do this.
Children can really benefit from knowing how to speak English well and it can provide opportunities for them down the time. The aim is to get them excited and inspired to learn the language and about education in general.
Location
Lovina is situated right at the North end of Bali and is much less touristy than areas down South – which is the beauty of it! Life is relaxed here with less traffic, tourist, and uncrowded beaches. It is also close to other beauty spots, such as stunning natural waterfalls, hot springs, diving and dolphin tours. Lovina gives you a teste for wat ‘old Bali’ was like before tourism arrived and is great for those wanting a more authentic location to stay.

*PLEASE NOTE: All participants for the Education, Teaching, Construction, and Turtle Conservation projects, are required to apply for a C6 Social Cultural visa prior to arrival. Participants who have a Visa On Arrival or an E-Visa on Arrival will not be able to participate in these projects. Participants who only attend the culture, adventure, and yoga weeks will be accepted to join the programs with a Visa on Arrival. Going through an online agency or via our local team is the easiest way to obtain the visa.
**Exceptions to the C6 visa
Participants can join any program with a Visa on Arrival (VOA) for the following program types:
- 1-week culture week, plus 1 to 3 week volunteer program
- 1-week volunteer program
However, it is important to highlight that participants using a VOA must put 'tourism' for reason of visit.
We still encourage volunteers to arrive with a C6 visa for all programs. Please note that obtaining and using a VOA is entirely the participant's responsibility. We cannot be held accountable for any issues or concerns arising from this, as we are obligated to recommend the appropriate visa type for participants joining volunteering projects.
