    You'll be embraced by the local community and as you spend time with the children, you can help improve their life skills, get them to think creatively and teach English.

    Over het programma

    You will teach young kindergarten children through games, singing, dancing, art and anything else you can think of! Being taught English at a young age will be invaluable for them later on in life, so you can play an important role in giving them a head start.

    As the children are still young, the teaching is informal and they will want to play with you more than be ‘taught’. However, by getting them excited to come to school and learn, you can install healthy and lifelong learning habits, that will be vital to them in later years.

    You can teach the children some very basic English phrases such as simple greetings, colours, animals, foods, etc and incorporate games and picture cards to make the lessons fun. The children are very excitable and will welcome you exceptionally, partly due to the nature and friendliness of the local people but also as you might be the first foreigner they have spoken to!

    Your general duties will include the following:

    • Helping children who need extra support to complete tasks
    • Teaching class in specialized subject under the direction of a teacher
    • Supporting local teachers with classroom activities
    • Create activities that will keep the students engaged, providing fun and interactive activities in teaching English, Math and basic life skills through story-telling, singing, and dancing
    • Regularly evaluating and assessing the progress of the children.

    During school holidays, we organise an English teaching program at a local community centre for students aged 6 to 18 years old. Please note that the number of children attending may vary, with an expected average of 15 to 20 children per day. It's worth mentioning that some children may be away from Nosy-BE during this time. There will be 3 to 4 hours of teaching time per day, where 1 hour will be dedicated to lesson preparation for the following day. 

    Location
    Nosy Be (meaning ‘big island’) is an absolutely stunning island off the north-west coast and is Madagascar’s largest and busiest tourist destination. The population is estimated around 73,010 and the island has an area space of 320.02 square kilometres.

    On Nosy Be island you will find volcanic lakes, lemurs, rum distilleries, Ylang Ylang plantations and beautiful coral reefs. There is just so much to explore on this amazing island! In May, you can experience the 4 day Donia Music Festival. Situated on the Indian Ocean, on Nosy-Be island you can relax on the best white sand beaches, take a boat trip through the jungle, go trekking to see lemurs or snorkel alongside turtles and manta rays in the clear waters.
