Teaching Volunteers
Teach the Teachers is a non-profit initiative founded to make an impact on the rural communities and especially their youth, by teaching and promoting English. We aim to reach this goal by working together with the local teachers to improve their English, help them come up with new teaching methods and stressing the importance of English to the students. Knowledge of English increases their job opportunities, allows for self-development, and eventually increases their general welfare.

Conduct the 7 online sessions with your team.
Come up with lesson plans and new learning material.
Prepare for the sessions based on lesson plans and curriculum.
Document the regular performance of the Peruvian Teachers and provide feedback.
