Join
International Volunteer HQ, the world’s leading volunteer travel organization, and support the
Teaching Volunteer Program in Tanzania.
On this program, you will assist in schools in Arusha where classes are often large and understaffed. Volunteers gain teaching experience by leading classes or helping local teachers with lessons in a range of school subjects. Alternatively, volunteers are also able to work in a school for students with disabilities who need a great deal of attention and support to thrive and succeed at school.
Volunteers in Tanzania are either accommodated in a volunteer house or a homestay with a host family.
The program has
start dates on the 1st and 15th of every month.
This program ranges from 1-16 weeks. Your fully-hosted experience includes airport pick-up, orientation, accommodation, meals and 24/7 support. Detailed pricing information for your duration is available
on our website.

There is also an opportunity for volunteers to work in a special needs school, helping students with a range of mental and physical disabilities.
