Volunteer to
Teach
English in India gives you the great opportunity
to share your knowledge with others and
experience a new culture from within. It is one
of the best ways to truly catch a glimpse of the
soul of a place. You’ll have a lot of fun and
gain valuable skills while your students
practice their skills with you learning English
in a whole new way.
For teaching English it is not necessary for
volunteers to have past experience and in-depth
knowledge of grammar and vocabulary. The
children having experience working with fluent
English speakers is invaluable on its own.
Whatever extra-curricular activity you may do
with the kids- be it, playing games, story
telling, singing or giving knowledge about your
own culture, it involves talking in English and
provides practice for the students. Most of the
children are at a very basic require learning
more about things in their daily life like body
parts ,names of birds and animals ,opposites
etc. and some conversation used in their daily
life. This is a brilliant opportunity to teach
children in an orphanage or a school for the
disadvantaged kids in Delhi or National Capital
Region and interacting with them is extremely
valuable for children’s confidence and your
learning of the local culture. One good
technique of building rapport and empowering the
children is to ask them to teach you basic Hindi
at the same time as you are teaching them.
You’ll come back with fond memories of an
unforgettable experience. |
