    Beschreibung

    I was born in the village of Kumbalam, Kundara, Kollam, Kerala, India in the year 1939 but studied and worked in the US for over 50 years and 10 years in Europe. I worked in Cambridge Public Schools in Massachusetts, USA FOR 25 YEARS. Upon retiring, it was my dream to return and start a school that promotes a different style of education. I firmly believe that a student does not fully learn by simply reciting information. It is my wish for my students to learn to reach conclusions on their own and be creative to inspire innovation. I encourage them to become socially responsible leaders for India, trying to alleviate the social evils in India. " My passion is my students; they are safe in my hands" is our motto.

    We have three schools. The students range from LKG (the American equivalent of preschool) to 12th. They are very bright and ambitious, and we do our best to open doors for them to achieve anything. In our schools, we have a heavy emphasis on English to do just this.

    We are looking for people to give conversational English classes for Pre- K to 12th grade (standard). We are also running about 10 charitable programs. Workawayers are needed to work with our charities too. We could use some help with fundraising for our charities.

    We are looking for someone to come to our schools and lead classes to teach simple nursery rhymes to the younger students, guide the older students in proper pronunciation, improve conversational skills, and build their confidence in speaking. The school year runs from June to March and we are happy to host you at any time for any duration.

    During your time, you will be staying on campus in our hostel at no cost. The hostel is also home to 15-20 of our students. All meals are provided by our on-site cook (vegetarian and non-vegetarian are available), but if there is anything that you require - we will do our best to accommodate you.

    We have hosted volunteers from Germany, England, America, Australia, Spain, Portugal, Turkey, and other countries. Please contact us with any questions or inquiries that you may have.

    Our charities include building a home for the poor, a minimum of a house a year; making required maintenance for poor homes in dilapidated condition maximum of 6 in a year, giving food to about 200 families a year, providing 200 terminally ill patients a year with some financial help for buying medicine, providing land to build a house to the poor landless person, one a year, providing 100 scholarships for poor bright students to study, fully or partially, educating about 100 students of the poor fishing community, starting an elderly home for the poor, start an Indian Defence Academy to prepare poor students with tuition for the entrance exam to the Academy, a similar Academy to prepare poor children who are bright to prepare for Indian Civil Service competitive exams.
