Hello Everyone,
[NOTE: We are Portuguese speakers and do not speak English at our Community]
I started the volunteering program 3 years ago and the goal is to Teach English to the people living in our community and exchange skills and knowledge. Located in the Zona Rural neighborhood, in Itacoatiara-Amozonas, Brazil. We are the largest community in the entire Amazon basin living (consisting about 200 houses) on the banks of amazon river. The Amazon rive is a minute away from the doorstep and is amazing to spend your time watching sunrise, sunset and boats passing-by.
We invite international volunteers to join us so our students can gain a realistic understanding of what speaking English is like, experience different accents, and get a glimpse of life beyond Brazil—a cultural exchange.
In Brazil, extracurricular English classes can be quite expensive. Our goal is to provide affordable classes, hoping to create future opportunities for our students. We believe in the power of language education to build connections, create opportunities, and enrich lives.Tipos de ajuda e oportunidades de aprendizado

We expect you to stay with us for at least 2 weeks (Minimum). One of the most important distinctions between hot and cold-climate cultures in the work setting is that hot-climate culture is relationship-based. All hot-climate communication has one goal: to promote a friendly environment and a positive relationship. From what we’ve experienced so far, 2 weeks is a great way to start building these connections.
We expect you to conduct conversational English lessons for students of all ages, from beginner to intermediate level, in an interactive way! No prior knowledge of Portuguese is required. You don't have to be a native English speaker, but you must have an advanced level.
You can teach anything you feel like, there is no restrictions or guideline. We want our people to learn, understand and communicate as much as possible and also a experience with international travelers. So, you'll be expected to give a workshop that can range from talking about your home country/culture to sharing your unique skills with students.Idiomas
