Aide
We use Montessori methodology when teaching the children, emphasizing independence and allowing them to learn through play. We also integrate practical activities, singing, dancing, and athletic activities into the curriculum to create more well rounded children. We hope that each volunteer who comes to stay with us will be able to contribute whatever skills they have. Previous volunteers have been able to teach swimming lessons, English, geography, math, etc., as well as assisting with monitoring the health of the children. We would like our volunteers to havea good handle on the English language. Those who are interested in working with the older students should be proficient in basic educational areas such as math, science and history. There are several special needs children attending the school, so any volunteers with knowledge specific to working with them would be warmly welcomed.
