I was born in the village of Kumbalam, Kerala, India but studied and worked in the US for many years. Upon retiring, it was my dream to return and start a school which 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. " My passion is my students; they are safe in my hands". Our motto for 2019-2020", school year.
We have three schools. The students range from LKG (American equivalent of pre-school) to 10th. 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 someone to come to our schools and lead classes to teach simple nursery rhymes to the younger students, and guide the older students in proper pronunciation, improve conversational skills, and to build their confidence in speaking. The school year runs 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 provide it.
We have hosted volunteers from Germany, England, America, Australia, and others. Please contact us with any questions or inquiries that you may have.

In your spare time, there is a beautiful lake nearby that you would enjoy visiting. Additionally, there are often festivals and holidays that we will go out to celebrate. Everything is in walking distance, but if you need to go further out - I have a car to take you.
