Help
As volunteer you don´t have to teach English grammar. You´ll have to focus on speaking and help students to overcome the fear of having conversations in a different language.
The conversations will be mostly one to one, but of course if they want to a group chat you will be able to do it that way, too.
You will also have the chance to play games, listen to music, share pictures, and talk about all kind of experiences you´ve had. That way the student will be more interested and you´ll have fun times.
