Descrição
(Short/Long Term) ONE MONTH
**No experience needed**

Hello Workawayer!

My name is Carol. I am from Honduras and I teach at 'In English, Please!' English club -

We are looking for dedicated English-speaking volounteers from around the world who love children and aspire to help them improve their English. This experience offers an opportunity for you to teaching skills .

There are about 15 students aged between 6 to 25 years old, seperated in diferent levels .
We prefer long term volounteerts (1 month or more) as the kids must often adjust to new environment.

There is a lot of flexibility in what you want to teach - and you're welcome to be as creative as you like, this is encouraged!

As well as teaching, we are also looking for computer assistance. Keeping our schedule up to date is very important! This task involves liaising with future volunteers, keeping Workaway profile up to date and preparing student worksheets.

About the area... I love hiking in the mountains with the volounteers, we have well maintainted paths and beautiful viewpoints. Ocotepeque is at the border of El Salvador and Guatemala, so it's easy to continue your travels from here. Whilst Ocotepeque is a small town, it has everything you will need here: shops, parks, gym, movie theatre, restaurants,coffee places and delicious street food! I enjoy going to the gym in the mornings and you are more than welcome to get a membership and join me , so we can motivate eachother!

Look forward to hearing from you!

Algo mais...
My name is Carol, I am the only other teacher at the English Club: ‘In English, Please!

I really want to do more exercise and have loved going on walks and hikes with previous volunteers. We have so many beautiful mountains with easy access to Guatemala and El Salvador. You will have fun here and it would be an amazing cultural experience for sure!

Ocotepeque is a safe and quiet town located around a 10 minute drive from the El Salvador border, and around 25 minutes from the Guatemala border. There are many tourist attractions in the area which volunteers often travel to, including the Mayan ruins at Copan, the famous church at Esquipulas, Guatemala, the Pacific coast of El Salvador, Bay Island, Roatan, Utila and more.

The nearest airport is in San Salvador, El Salvador. From there, you need to get to a small town called 'El Poy'. There are buses there that will then take you to the Honduran border.
Ordinary Route 119: runs from San Salvador to the El Poy border (San Salvador-Honduras). It costs $1.70. It leaves at 4:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. every half hour approximately.

From San Pedro, there are regular buses – including the Sultana and Congolon. Make sure you tell the company you are going to Ocotepeque and NOT the border.

From Guatemala, you will need to get the 'Rutas Orientales'. This route goes throgh a small town called Esquipulas. From there, you can easily get to the border of Honduras and then to Ocotepeque.

Once you have confirmed your place I can send you the google maps location.

I had a great experience at Carol's for two months! It was my first teaching experience and I must admit it was a very big challenge, but so worth it.

I volunteered here for six weeks, from February to March 2020. It was an excellent experience and I would highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys experiencing new cultures and working with children. I’m very grateful to Carol for the opportunity.

The school – the kids are from kindergarten age up to 18. The class sizes are very small but the… read more kids can be quite loud so be prepared to get interrupted a lot! However please do not let this put you off, they are motivated and keen to learn. I really enjoyed teaching them, even though I had limited teaching experience beforehand. Timetables and lesson plans change at very short notice but as long as you’re relaxed and flexible this shouldn’t be a problem for you. As school finishes at 12.40 every day you have plenty of free time.

The set-up – we lived in a volunteer house which was one block away from the school and Carol’s house. Carol and her family are very kind and welcoming and will help you out with anything you need during your stay. Rosita’s food is delicious and healthy and the portions are generous!

Volunteer house – this is spacious and comfortable by Central American standards. Each room has an en-suite bathroom and we had reliable high-speed broadband. Occasionally the water cut out for a few hours but it was quickly fixed each time. Whenever we needed the house to be cleaned we asked Carol and she sent someone round.

The town – Ocotepeque is a small-ish town surrounded by mountains. It is small enough that you can walk everywhere, but big enough to be able to buy nearly everything you might need. We went and sunbathed in the park every afternoon and as we were the only foreigners in town we had lots of chance encounters with locals who came up to chat to us. The local people are friendly and kind, although if you are a woman you may get stared at whilst walking in the street (although no more than in many other parts of the world). It feels very safe, although just to be careful I tried to stick to the main streets when I was on my own.

Activities – we joined Genesis gym across town. There is a cinema around the corner called Colicinema – follow them on Facebook to find out what films they’re showing. We attended the Iglesia Bautista in Sinuapa, which is about a 20 minute walk away. They gave us an incredibly warm welcome and we went on some really fun and interesting trips with them. We also went on a couple of hikes with Carol into the mountains, which were beautiful.

Learning Spanish – you will teach in English (if you teach the older kids) but if you would like to learn Spanish you will have plenty of opportunities to do so with the friendly people you bump into, other teachers and Carol’s family.

To start with, I had an awesome time in Honduras. From the very beginning until the end, I always felt welcomed by the family.

I arrived through San Salvador and thereafter spent about two months with Carol and her family in Ocotepeque. The small town that is located right at the border to El Salvador and Guatemala is very safe. In contrast to… read more the overall rumor of Honduras being dangerous, the city is really a nice place to stay. Walking around in the night, going for a run in the morning or napping in the park: none of those options ever brought any danger to us. The city is really nice and quiete. There is not too much to do. But it has everything you need: some grocery stores, a park, two gyms, a small football/basketball court, artificial courts, churches etc. Luckily, I never had to use medical assistance but I saw some pharmacies as well as doctors.

Besides the nice town, the family and the entire Hondurian societe is very warm, welcoming and friendly. Ocotepeque was a great start for us volunteers. We were welcomed very quickly and warmly. The Hondurians were always willing to help us, chat with us in Spanish and were very interested in us foreigners (there is barely any tourism there). If anyone is looking for a language and culture exchange, he/she is going to find it there.

The school life itself is also very relaxed. The kids are very nice and fun. They really like us foreigners and are interested in learning English (most of the time; they are still ordinary school kids). The daily life is also very relaxed. We tought every day between 8 and 12:40 but most of the times had large enough breakes to even go to the gym. School itself is a quiete relaxed environment and you will find lots of freedom in how you want to teach. Sometimes the timetable changes on short notice and you have to be able to act spontaneously and embrace a large part of the Latinamerican culture: a different perception of timings and plans.

After school we had the delicious local food provided by the family and the rest of the day was off. We usually spent 3 hours in the park or went with some friends we made their to pick mangos, sugar cane processing or to church. We also went to hike the sorrounding moutains, made short trips to smaller villages in the mountains by motorbike and car. The very flexible time schedules usually also enable very well to do weekend trips. We went for instance to Copan Ruinas, which are a must.

Overall, deciding to go volunteering in Ocotepeque is a great choice!

My experience here was eye-opening and truly amazing. This trip was my first time traveling out the U.S. alone. I was anxious about safety, as well as my ability to communicate with others due to my very low level of Spanish speaking skills. But from the first day I arrived I was welcomed by Carol, the other local teachers, and the 2 other… read more volunteers who took me under their wing and showed me around the small city of Ocotepeque, relieving me of many of my worries. The media unfortunately inaccurately portrays this country. Although it is important to always be aware of your surroundings, Ocotepeque is a VERY safe city. Not once did I feel in any kind of danger.

However, keep in mind Ocotepeque is also a very small city. It is not a tourist spot, and there is not many things to do within the city. The teaching duties end around 1:30 every day, but there is a local refugee shelter down the road who are in desperate need of volunteers (it serves immigrant families and children traveling through Honduras on their way to Mexico/U.S.) I strongly encourage future volunteers to make friends with the locals. Jorge (the son of one of the teachers) plays soccer/futbol on weekly basis and welcomes anyone to join them. Victor the security guard across the street loves meeting new people, and often stops by the house to chat, which will inevitably develop your Spanish skills. There are many tourist attractions "close by" (about 6-8 hours) and relatively easy to get to by bus (Antigua, Mayan Ruins, Lake Atitlan).

As far as the actual school, I was surprised by the students levels of English. Despite my inability to speak Spanish I was able to effectively communicate with all my students. Carol welcomes volunteers with all types of backgrounds and does not necessarily require teaching experience. Keep that in mind and be aware that there will not be a lot of training. There are books, one teacher book with corresponding student work books, provided for each class. You have the option to just stick to the work book which pretty much spells out the lesson plans. For aspiring teachers this is a great opportunity to be creative and test out different lesson plans, projects, practice classroom management and grading. Be patient with yourself and the students. PLEASE follow through with your time commitment, however long it may be. When volunteers leave early it is the students who suffer.
Working here opens your eyes to 3rd world living, cultural differences, and so much more! It is an invaluable experience you will never forget.
Feel free to message me with any other questions!

My time in Ocotepeque was amazing! The kids are adorable and so sweet, the relationships I formed with them are ones that I will never forget. Carol is wonderful as well, she always made sure that I was comfortable and happy, and helped me learn the best ways to help the students learn. Ocotepeque is a beautiful town nestled in the mountains, with… read more

I stayed 3 months in Ocotepeque teaching. The experience was really interesting for me and gave me the opportunity to learn a lot about the hondurian culture and to teach in another country than Canada.
Everyone was very welcoming : my students, people from the village, Carol and her family... I also had fun with the other volunteers that were… read more

I spent three months teaching here...and what an experience it was! Teaching full time in Ocotepeque was somewhat demanding, but undoubtedly worth the reward. Building relationships with the kids and the wider community was the real prize here. Also a great opportunity to practice Spanish.
The accommodation is ample, plenty of space and… read more

Mary was a pleasure to have both as a friend here and as a full time teacher. Her personality put a smile on the students' faces, and her creativity helped brighten the school. Mary won't look for a reason to complain, but rather will complete a task efficiently. She adjusted to the culture here in Ocotepeque very well, and we will certainly… read more

Emily and Charles did so much for our school. They put everything they had into all their projects, and did more than just teach at the school. They involved themselves with all the goings on of the school, and contributed greatly. The relationships they formed not only with the children at the school, but with their parents and the community,… read more

The best experience ever ! We taught 6 month at the the school and now its like a second family !

It's more than a school, you feel like at home with Carol, Gloria and the lovely cooker Rosita. Kids are so lovable and fun. You teach them but at the end they teach you much more and we felt so sad to leave them.. You teach some science, social… read more

Josh taught at our school for 7 months and was awesome. Hard worker, reliable, and low-maintenance. The students loved him and learned a lot during his time here. He's also your go-to guy for parties and fun on the weekend. Take this man in!

Stayed at the school for 6 months and had a great time teaching at this school. Accommodation and food are basic Honduran fare, but the family makes sure you're taken care of and treats volunteers like family. Ocotepeque is a friendly town and pretty close to anywhere you may want to visit in Central America. I've made many lifelong friends… read more

I stayed 2 weeks and a half with the family and 5 others volunteers, most of them on long term (a year) and it was an enjoyable experience. I regret I couldn't stay longer as I was at the end of my trip and more time constrained, so it was difficult to get any real achievements but still. Will probably try again in the future on a longer… read more
