You will join our local team in the mountain town of Abetifi in eastern Ghana, supporting education initiatives in nearby community schools. Volunteers assist teachers with lessons, reading practice, games and creative activities that help make learning engaging for students.
The program is designed to support existing teachers rather than replace them. Volunteers work alongside local staff and other international volunteers to create a positive learning environment for the children.
Outside of project time you will live in our volunteer house with participants from around the world. The town of Abetifi sits in the beautiful Kwahu mountains, offering a peaceful environment, welcoming community life and opportunities to explore local culture and nature.
Our team provides orientation, project guidance and ongoing support throughout your stay.
School activities normally take place Monday to Friday.
Typical activities may include:
• Supporting teachers during English lessons
• Reading practice and conversation activities with students
• Helping with sports and creative classroom activities
• Assisting with basic classroom organisation
• Participating in occasional community events or school activities
A typical schedule may look like:
Morning: School support activities
Afternoon: Lesson preparation, community activities or free time
Weekends are free for rest, exploring the Kwahu mountains or visiting nearby towns and attractions.
To ensure a positive experience for both volunteers and the community, we ask participants to follow a few simple guidelines:
• Respect local culture and community values
• Be punctual and committed to your volunteer activities
• Support teachers rather than taking over classes
• Maintain a friendly and respectful attitude with students and staff
• Keep shared spaces in the volunteer house clean and tidy
Our program is community-based and volunteers are expected to approach the experience with flexibility, patience and a willingness to learn about local culture.
