deceased relatives. These groups generally focus on helping at a very local
level to empower those around them. Common activities include educational and

local orphans in the form of access to free education, and raising awareness of
important health issues.

There is much need for extra help in Tanzanian schools. However,
it is very important to know where and how to give support. In general, we
support locally based schools, trying to provide an education to those who
would otherwise go without. We currently have volunteer positions at teaching
projects for children of all ages. The nursery schools are run by local
organizations trying to prepare the children for primary school by teaching
them basics such as reading, writing, maths, Swahili, and English. Projects
working with older children are providing education to orphaned and
disadvantaged children, who otherwise would not be able to attend school. We do
not agree with placing unskilled people into teaching positions, replacing
local teachers, or disrupting the work of the local teachers. Local teachers are
teaching at all of these schools and rather than replace them, we try to enhance
their work by taking extra classes and activities, dividing large classes, and
helping give more individual attention to the children. Volunteers can also
help with one-on-one tuition for children falling behind.
One of the common difficulties for children in Tanzania is that
primary school is taught in Swahili and secondary school
in English. This is
a difficult transition, therefore much assistance is required to help
children build their English.
Along with formal teaching, there are opportunities to pass on
other skills for children, such as drama, singing, gardening, hygiene, and human
rights, Volunteers run skills training and health/life skills tasks at a few
projects.
You do not need to be a teacher to help with teaching positions.
You can still be a valuable asset when volunteering as a teacher's assistant,
activities director, or offering one one-on-one tuition. Other aspects of teaching
projects include working with children with learning difficulties, street children, and young people on remand. Vocational skills are particularly valuable for
these placements.
