There's great demand among the island communities on Nosy Komba and Nosy Be to learn English to enhance future job prospects and the ability to communicate with the growing number of tourists in Madagascar, who contribute significantly to the local economy. Despite this enthusiasm towards learning English, opportunities to learn the language from native speakers are scarce. Volunteers in Madagascar have the opportunity to fuel this interest, taking English grammar and conversational lessons within local schools and communities. Volunteers in Madagascar either teach English to students in small village schools on the islands of Nosy Be or Nosy Komba, or to staff members at the Oceanographic Research Institute on Nosy Be.

The whole experience exceeded any expectations by 1000x
July 18, 2023by: Kasia GasiorProgram: Volunteer and Teach in Madagascar with IVHQOne month was too short and I wish I could've stayed for MUCH longer! I hope and plan to return for a longer period one day :) Ampang has my heart! I went into this program having zero idea what to expect, I just always knew I wanted to teach English in Madagascar. The whole experience exceeded any expectations by 1000x. The staff is awesome, I've made so many close friends there and I loved learning the language and about the culture. Teaching there has made a huge impact on me and I am forever grateful for the experience and opportunity.
Overall, I felt very well prepared before starting my trip
October 05, 2022by: Linda Varve-PerryProgram: Volunteer and Teach in Madagascar with IVHQOverall, I felt very well prepared before starting my trip. I felt very well supported throughout the duration of my volunteer experience by the local team. What a great group of hard working individuals! I continue to reflect on the level of eagerness and interest demonstrated by the students, children, teens and adults. Children attended the classes despite being on school break! My favourite moment was hearing students call out my name while walking about in the village following my volunteer teaching experience. I couldn't believe they remembered my name. This trip generated a renewed sense of gratitude for all things available to me at home. If you are thinking about volunteering, go for it! You won't regret it and will only grow from the experience.
Incredible
November 30, 2014by: Zoe - CambridgeProgram: Volunteer and Teach in Madagascar with IVHQThe 7 weeks I spent teaching in English were full of non stop smiles and laughter - you'll never feel alone or ever want to come home. I can't even begin to explain how much the kids that I taught had an impact on me - whilst in Madagascar I felt a happiness that I'd never felt before. You'll be welcomed with such warm hearts and their constant smiles do spread! The experience I had was enriching & fulfilling to say the least, I came home having felt I'd made an impact on the kids lives and I can't explain how that feels. You'll make friends for life, both with the volunteers and the local people you meet - and Jessi (the program co-ordinator) is a godsend. Nosy Komba is a dream and more!
