Program Description:
Teaching Madagascar
Join International Volunteer HQ, the world’s leading volunteer travel organization, and support the Teaching Volunteer Program in Madagascar.

On this program, you will help local people learn English on the islands of Nosy Komba and Nosy Be. Volunteers will gain teaching experience while sharing valuable language skills and knowledge with children and adults who, as a result, have more opportunities and are more likely to be able to secure work in the country’s growing tourism industry.

Volunteers are accommodated in locally built open-air huts on Nosy Komba and can expect to share a hut with up to five other volunteers of the same gender.

The program has start dates on the first and third Monday of the month throughout the year.

This program ranges from 1-12 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

When you volunteer as a teacher in Madagascar you’ll provide great value in being able to lead English grammar and conversational lessons in local schools and communities. Your perspective as a fluent English speaker gives you great authority in your lessons, and volunteers make a real difference in helping locals learn the language.

You’ll be teaching English to children and adults in small village schools on the islands of Nosy Be or Nosy Komba, or to staff members at the Oceanographic Research Institute on Nosy Be. Volunteers assist staff at the ?institute in establishing a good working knowledge of English, enhancing their ability to communicate ideas and collaborate research findings internationally.
