Vietnam Teaching

Reviews: 0 Joined: 30 Do Lana

1. The mission of the program

The program has been operated since 2015 and is run all year round. It was founded by an American veteran. He participated in Vietnam war in the past (1969-1975), of course, on the side of the American army. After the war, like other American soldiers, he came back to the USA. When he retired, he decided to come back to Vietnam with the will to do something good for Vietnam in the hope of making it up to the past, and the charity English program was founded. That was the first mission of the program. He ran the program for a few years and now he is expanding it in another areas of Vietnam. We are in Hanoi to continue his will.

In shorts, the program’s purpose is to offer students with little budget to access English by practical lessons with foreign volunteer teachers.

Oye LENA tries to tackle poverty and social inequality through quality education. Every child has the right to a quality education, focused on personality development, regardless of their own capabilities and limitations and regardless of the place and culture in which they grow up.

Type of work

-Personal stress management is important when working in the field. Consider how you handle yourself in stressful situations and if this could impact how you work with students.
-Due to a variety of unpredictable factors, you will likely feel uncomfortable at some point in time – whether it’s due to food, conditions, accommodation, time, or cultural differences.
-The volunteer’s workload is demanding and it may require long hours.

Conditions

We offer two projects:

Cultural HOUSE: To study English in Colombia is something that not everybody can afford. Academies are really expensive and not always offer the best quality. So we created a cultural house where people can come and learn English at low cost. We also visit locals schools to give them support in the English classes. For this project we offer accommodation and a kind of wage of 800.000 COP. It is important the person gets committed at least for 6months.

P.E MTE: This project is for working as physical education assistant in rural schools in Colombia. The person can get involved in this project for short periods (e.g. a month). The project goes from January to November, so the person can be part of this anytime during this time. It`s not necessary to apply for any visas though the schools provide the person just acommodation and lunch from Monday to Friday.

Live in Colombia and teach English

Zipaquirá, Colombia Teaching

More than English Colombia aims to bring foreign teachers to rural schools in Colombia to teach English. Since all the schools we work with are in rural areas, it is more of a volunteering position because these schools don't really have many resources. The schools provide accommodation, breakfast and lunch during the weekdays and they pay monthly salary of approx 700 000 Colombian pesos (about 214 EUR) which is a standard Colombian salary. It isn't much by any western standards, however, you can live very comfortably with this amount here.

Type of work

In Colombia normally classes start very early, from 6:30am to 3:00pm. During this time there are two breaks of 45 minutes each. Classes are from Monday to Friday.

Conditions

We guarantee that schools will offer a fair-trade so they will give housing, breakfast and lunch from Monday to Friday, transport from the acommodation place to the school (in case is needed) and a wage. The wage is around $700000 (220euro approx). The salary isn't much by any western standards, however, you can live very comfortably with this amount here. Before volunteers have managed to travel with this amount around the country.
