About Program

Teaching at My Little Red House Bilingual School is a rewarding opportunity for international, native English-speaking volunteers to live and work in a Honduran community. Our staff of 6-8 volunteers also forms a community. They share the experiences of coming to a foreign country to live and work, and they plan classes together, go out together in Ocotepeque, and travel around Honduras and Central America on breaks.

We give preference to candidates with teaching experience at any level. However, we also accept candidates from any background and life stage. At the minimum, all of our teachers have desire to teach or tutor in some capacity, and they must demonstrate a dedication to living and working abroad.

Long-term volunteers (serving 6 months +) are provided free accommodation and meals.

Visit our website or send us an e-mail if you're interested. Please include your resume, too!

Challenging and Rewarding Experience Abroad

Ocotepeque is a quaint town tucked away in western Honduras, far from crime from the major cities. Many buses stop in this town, making travel to other cities and short weekend getaways very easy and affordable. The Penman family are welcoming and go out of their way to make volunteers feel at home. I highly recommend this program to anyone interested in volunteering abroad.

What would you improve about this program?
During my stay, many volunteers came and left after a short period of time. The Penman family depend on volunteer English teachers and will therefore accept most great applicants even if they cannot commit to at least six months. However, the program can be improved if ESL teachers commit to one full year. This will give the volunteer the best experience to gain from this program and better serve the students.
