Hi, my name is Amma. I live in a little town named is palopo. It is about 365km northen makassar. I live here with my husband and kids. I have a project to teach english for childrens in my village. Because i know that english is very important language. We can go every where if we can speak english. So we need volunteers who can help us to teach or practice english with childrens. The main activity of volunteers is to run an English class. 3 times per week and 1 hours of teaching per day. You are free during the mornings and weekends. The levels are mixed with 10-20 kids in each class. It is best is to have a few volunteers to divide the class in small groups. We are really focused on oral English; we want these kids to feel comfortable speaking English. Games and fun activities work well to keep them interested and help with their memory. If you are an artistic person, we would be happy to hear some ideas about how to decorate the classroom. A volunteer book is kept with all of previously taught lessons so you can have an idea of what the know.
So i hope to see you soon. 😊

You will staying and sleeping in my house as your host. We share food 3 times per day with local and home cooked meals. You can contribute by buying some food. But you also have the option to get food by yourself. I mean, you can going out to have lunch or dinner in local restaurant [ we call it, warung makan]. There's a lot of cheap meals around my city. We have a kitchen and a traditional bathroom. Sorry, we don't have a western style shower.
We are happy to show you around if you want. When class off on the weekend, you can go around in my village. Go to island with tradisional boat called katinting is a fun activity. Or going to toraja because toraja is near from palopo. It is only 60km. 2 hours by bike or public transportation. We can see amazing view during the trip from palopo to toraja. or going to the waterfall. etc...
