Summary

Childcare, children, education, activity guidance, creative, development work.

Detailed description

Who are we?
Travel2Connect is a small-scale social enterprise that offers interns and volunteers the opportunity - if you are open to it - to learn from another culture. We put you in direct contact with the local inhabitants of Gambia or Senegal. We strive for you to have an authentic and unique experience that will stay with you for a lifetime.

Activities
Have you always wanted to work with small children in a developing country? Are you looking for an unforgettable foreign experience? Then we offer an interesting project in The Gambia. You will work at a kindergarten with children aged 4 to 7 years. You supervise the children in groups. You discuss with the teachers or supervisors what you are going to do with the children. You undertake fun activities; you teach the children English - go do crafts with them - or you play games. These activities contribute to the development of the children.

We ask
* You are at least 18 years old on the departure date.
* You are physically and mentally healthy.
* You are patient, flexible, reliable and interested in other cultures.
* You have affinity or experience with the vacancy or you are following a course for this.
* There is a registration procedure.
* You pay the costs that volunteer work in Gambia entails, such as preparation and supervision costs, flight ticket, accommodation costs and meals.

We offer
* Interesting projects from which you will learn a lot.
* A good preparation in the Netherlands and guidance in The Gambia.
* Pick up service from the airport.
* Introduction day in Gambia.
* A lodging address that serves as a home base where the volunteer can go with questions and relax.
* Various possibilities for excursions and/or workshops.
