    Om programmet

    Sadly with poverty and homelessness in Cuzco, not all children or adults have access to quality education. This program aims to provide a caring and nurturing space for volunteers to assist children, teens and adults with their studies so they can gain confidence in their abilities and go on to improve their quality of life. 

    English Teaching in Peru is an incredible way to give back to the local community.  Cuzco is a major South American tourist hub and as such the students are very much aware of the importance of English speaking and writing skills for their career opportunity.   For this reason, most are very eager to learn which makes for a full filling experience for international volunteers. 

    You will be creating daily lesson plans, teaching classes, one-on-one tutoring, and creating educational games and activities for your students. You may also work in other activities such as cleaning and fixing up the teaching areas.

    You may also be provided with a crash course in teaching English as a Second Language (ESL), which provides you with basic theories and strategies to effectively teach ESL. You will also have access to materials for your lessons.  If you would like a more in-depth course before you leave,  check out this TEFL accredited course, which can give you the confidence for the classroom. 

    International volunteers do not require any teaching background, however qualified teachers and/or TEFL accredited teachers are highly regarded. 


    Location

    Cusco, Peru -  easily one of the top 5 ancient civilization centers in the world, is also home to immense scenic beauty, bio-diversity and incredible culture.  On this project, you'll be situated in Cuzco city.

    Henting fra flyplassen på Alejandro Velasco Astete International Airport

    Complimentary Arrival Transfer.  You’ll arrive at Alejandro Velasco Astete International Airport (CUZ).   When clearing immigration it’s best to simply state ‘tourism’.    When you arrive you will be greeted by a member of our local team and taken to the homestay or the volunteer center for orientation.In-Country TransportationMost volunteers will use in-expensive bus transport to get around and to travel to the project placements.  Our coordinators will assist you with all the details while in country. A one-way trip rarely costs more than US $0.50 in Cuzco or nearby neighborhoods and maybe US $2 for longer distances. Taxis are also readily available in and around Cusco. Taxis cost approximately US $3 – $10 depending on duration.  We recommend using formal taxis that use a meter to calculate the fare based on time and distance.

    Overnatting

    Your accommodation will be in home Stay’s with middle class Peruvian families in Cuzco.  You’ll likely be placed centrally or approx 10-15 min walk to the central volunteer & training center.   You can request to either share with other volunteers or have a private room in the home stay.   For shared rooms, you’ll normally share with 1-3 other volunteers of the same gender and age group.

    All host families are very experienced in hosting international volunteers and go through a rigorous process to ensure very high quality standards are met.  (See below pictures of typical houses).  These homes have electricity, western style toilets, running water, bed linen & basic amenities such as clean drinking water.    Hot showers are less common however!

    You’ll be provided a key to the house and are free to come and go as you please while being respectful of the house rules of the family.  WiFi is available at some home stay’s however most volunteers will purchase a data plan for cheap to be used with their own device as required.  Most families are happy to help with laundry, but you should expect to pay around US $2 per load if going to a local laundry service.

    Breakfast & dinner are included each day.   Peruvian food is very nice!   Rice, beans, and corn are popular ingredients, and fresh root vegetables like cassava, taro, and sweet potato are in most dishes.   You can also expect some fruits and vegetables, such as avocados (palta) accompanied by spicy aji salsa.
