Teaching in Nepal with Projects Abroad

Donating your time as a volunteer English teacher in Nepal is a great way to spend your gap year, career break or extended vacation. You can gain invaluable work experience without any previous teaching experience, and you do not require a TEFL certificate. Your English speaking abilities, energy and enthusiasm are all that is required to make a difference in schools where there is a lack of conve...

Program Highlights

Most volunteers in Nepal stay with a local host family, and those volunteering on a teaching project are likely to find themselves living very close to the school they teach at.

Living in such a close-knit community will allow you to learn a great deal about typical Nepali life and will greatly enhance your experience of the country.

You will rapidly feel like an integrated part of the local community, although you are sure to stand out from the crowd and may find yourself treated as something of a local celebrity!

Although your main role will be to teach English you may find that you also want to help out by coaching the soccer team or setting up an art club at lunchtime.

The impact you have on your students will be obvious, but you will also be part of a much larger network of volunteers, which is making a positive and ongoing contribution to the wider community.

What a wonderful experience I had in Nepal. The guidance from Projects Abroad was excellent.

The employees, teachers and children are so grateful that you want to think and work with them to optimize education and guidance. I felt so welcome at the school. I am still in touch with them. The host family makes you feel immediately at home in their home. Always willing to provid...
