Join us in making a difference in rural Kenya by lending your expertise and enthusiasm to local teachers and students. As you embark on this transformative journey, prepare to forge meaningful connections and expand your horizons together!

In the heart of rural Kenya, students and teachers eagerly await your arrival, ready to embrace the knowledge and experiences you bring. By complementing their already robust curriculum, you become an invaluable asset, enriching their educational journey in ways they never thought possible. Your presence opens doors to a more global perspective, exposing them to new ideas and fostering mutual learning.

For many local children, especially those in remote areas, the opportunity to interact with foreigners is a rare occurrence. English, one of Kenya’s official languages, often remains confined within the classroom walls, limiting their practice and confidence. Your presence alone can make a significant impact, as you engage with them in meaningful conversations and provide authentic language practice.

Upon arrival, you will be placed in a local school within the community. The specific placement will be determined by the needs of the community, availability, and, whenever feasible, your preferences. Embrace the opportunity to co-create lessons with the teachers, allowing your creativity to flourish. The youngest students especially enjoy sports, games, gardening, and singing, so let your imagination run wild.

The goal is to assist students and staff in their English language and subject mastery through engaging tasks that encourage practice and creativity. Feel free to introduce new ideas that promote cultural exchange and meaningful conversations among participants, staff, and students. If you have items or photos from your home country that can help illustrate unique facts or traditions, seize the chance to share an unforgettable lesson.

During extended holiday periods, when schools are on break, we may organize a special “day-camp” style English and Sports program for local children. As a participant, you will play a key role in running this program with the support of our coordinators, ensuring that the learning never stops.
