Volunteer Teaching English to children and youth in Guatemala
- Guatemala
About Program
For as little as $4 a day for the first six months and completely free thereafter you can volunteer with children and youth in Guatemala. Our volunteers are an integral part of our program; a key element included in our planning. Without volunteers, we're not complete.
Our volunteers are experienced ESL teachers who dedicate time to educating and nurturing our students. They are responsible, kind people who, through their care, help develop these young people whilst having the adventure of a lifetime.
Working 9am to 3pm, Monday to Friday, our English teachers will either join a local teacher, helping them give the English classes each week, focusing on pronunciation and accuracy in English or, they will lead their own classes, supporting the older students learn English.

This role has been created for an ESL-trained volunteer who would like to join us as a support teacher for our middle school grades 7-9. This is an opportunity to work alongside our locally trained ESL teacher working in large classrooms to support them teaching the curriculum. You will be asked to work alongside them whilst teaching the grammar and reading classes and take lead when teaching the conversation
classes; it is likely you will work closely with those students struggling in class.
