BRIEF INTRODUCTION
Hi! We are a school in Jember which uses Cambridge International Curriculum together with our National Curriculum. Our concern is to enrich the students' knowledge of languages and cultures as well as to improve the human resources (mainly teachers). We have some divisions here, they are:
1) Primary (6 classes) with students aged 6-12 years old and 2) Secondary I & II (4 classes so far) with students aged 12-15 years old. Specifically, each class consist of 5-12 students, they are typically enthusiastic, highly spirit and curious of people and things.
We are welcome to any volunteers who can help us to boost the quality of our school (volunteers with teaching experiences/background is preferable).
We are welcome and very excited to have any volunteer from all over the world (as we had before) and feel free to share about any needed information if you're willing to join.
One more additional information, we have a school holiday in June-July and December-mid January so we are not available on those months.
