While you are on BUNAC's Volunteer Teaching in Peru program, you will be doing valuable work helping to make difference working with children in Cusco focusing on the 4th United Nations Development Goal. Your project's aim is to deliver quality education to those who need it in order to inspire and promote life long learning. Not only will you help to shape the young minds that you will be teaching, you'll also be learning transferable skills and life long lessons of your own.
After working Monday - Friday teaching core subjects to children from different parts of the city. You'll have the chance to spend your weekends off fully immersing yourself in Peruvian culture.
Your day to day:
- Plan lessons
