Pre-School Teacher

Experience the beautiful Kynsa, South Africa and all its spectacular beaches, lagoons and forests and immerse yourself in a new Culture! Though this place seems to be a dream like paradise, there is still some major areas that requires assistance therefore, come now and become a volunteer to help by providing the much-needed teaching support and manpower to the local underprivileged pre-schools for children between the ages of 6 months to 6 years. Work along and share new skills with teachers to help the children to have a brighter and promising future!

The Pre-schools that are in the underprivileged communities currently have very basic facilities and limited funding. The project’s main goal is to work in conjunction with local education authorities to identify schools that are desperately in need of support. As such, you as a volunteer will be involved in in assisting with teaching fun and educational lessons. You’ll also be helping the local children to develop important language and mathematical skills.

Be part of this great cause and you can rest assured that your efforts will make a lasting difference in the lives you touch! Have the opportunity to live like the locals and experience a totally different way of life. Explore the beautiful beaches, try shark cage diving, wildlife viewing and so much more!

For a minimum of 4 weeks we hope that with your help, you can contribute towards empowering and educating the local children of Knysa’s underprivileged schools. Volunteers for this project support the teachers in whatever way they can and teaches them with new skills. You will also be involved in some renovations and maintenance of the school facilities and developing teaching resources. Some of your responsibilities will include:

• Assist with pre-school teaching/school enrichment.
  
• Support the teachers in whatever way you can.
  
• Provide new skills to the teachers.
  
• Help to improve literacy and numeracy skills.
  
• Ensuring to the local kids that schools are a safe & inspiring place to learn by assisting with renovating and maintaining school facilities and developing teaching resources.
  

There aren’t any specific start dates, the project is opened all year round however they close in mid-December to mid-January. They also prefer applicant arrivals to be on every second Saturday!

On days off volunteers have tons of opportunity to go sightseeing, shopping, swimming at the beautiful beaches, snorkeling, surfing and so much more! Any activity out of the project will be covered by the volunteer themselves.
