Are you interested on Tibetian Buddhist culture or way of Life ? Join Volunteer Aid Nepal’s ”Teaching in Buddhist Monastery” Volunteer Program. This is a great opportunity for volunteers who want to Teach English in the monasteries. There are several Tibetan refugees Camps and Monasteries that house hundreds of Tibetan kids taking Buddhist monk educational training in Kathmandu to preserve the amazing cultural richness of Tibet and Buddhism practice.
Volunteers will teach English to the monks, both young and old, for around 3 to 5 hours every day. Volunteers can also have a chance to participate in some monasteries run programs & meditation during free time. This program combines religious learning & research through Volunteering. This Teach English volunteer program will help Tibetan kids to explore more scriptures written in English and to circulate Buddhist teachings practice to the whole world. Often volunteers on this teaching English abroad programme are left to their own devices when teaching English.
