Benefits
Why do voluntary Teaching?
Voluntary teaching is beneficial to everyone involved. Firstly, it provides our volunteers with the opportunity to work in an environment culturally different from their own. This provides volunteers with an experience that is unique to Nepal and they will return home with a far greater understanding of the way in which millions of the world’s population think and act. They will more importantly have an understanding and appreciation for Nepalese youth culture and during their teaching classes will gain an insight into the way in which their students think, live and interact. Teaching will ultimately equip them with fuller and better cross-cultural understanding.
Secondly our volunteers are providing an important skill for the students they teach, that of conversational English. Having a native English speaker is a massive advantage and very helpful to the schools in which they teach. Both students and staff members alike wholly appreciate the language skills and enthusiasm our teaching volunteers bring to their classes. The students also use the opportunity of having a foreign teacher to learn about the customs and practices of the West.
Teaching Aid programme provides an opportunity for two different cultures to learn from each other. In the 21st Century the importance of greater cultural and linguistic exchange cannot be underestimated. We hope to provide new language skills for the students in the schools in which we place volunteers and also for the volunteers themselves to learn and gain knowledge from the classes in which they teach.
In summary, Volunteers can gain following benefits.
•Personal Growth
•Having a Purpose
•Gaining Independence and Confidence
•Connecting with Others
•Seeing a Country from the Inside-Out
•Learning with traveling
•learning cultures and Languages
