We welcome volunteers having a diverse culture and exposure to interact with our kids. You will enjoy and learn from our children with a lot of enthusiasm and energy. You also get to experience a child centric and child learning school, as a model of education. It may change your perception on education and learning compared with structured teacher centric schooling. You also love to see and interact with south Tamilnadu climate, culture and work.
This project could involve children. For more information see our guidelines and tips here.
We like to have volunteers to share the stuff you are passionate about it with kids. We do not expect volunteers to teach - rather share your expertise by doing/creating/showing something. You could share anything that you are passionate about - could be playing drums or carpentering, painting or playing soccer, making robots or android programming, doing theater or exploring maths etc. We expect you to prepare sessions in advance on atleast one topic and share the details with us before coming.
