Join
International Volunteer HQ, the world’s leading volunteer travel organization, and support the
Teaching English Volunteer Program in Guatemala.
On this program, you will gain teaching experience in schools, community centers and libraries. The ability to speak English gives Guatemalans a genuine opportunity to find work in a range of different careers, and volunteers teaching free classes help to make this a reality for people who would otherwise not be able to access lessons or afford to learn English.
Volunteers are accommodated in a large, dormitory style volunteer house.
The program has
start dates every Monday throughout the year.
This program ranges from 1-24 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.
Your Impact
As a Teaching English volunteer you will assist in local classrooms and teach classes independently or with another volunteer. Before you start teaching you will complete a TEFL crash course which will give you the tools and resources to plan lessons and help students with their learning.
English teaching volunteer work varies but generally consists of:
- Teaching small groups of children
- Tutoring local students
- Setting up workshops
- Assisting local teachers
- Setting up educational games and activities
- Lesson planning
