A ETIV está oferece uma oportunidade fantástica para voluntários ou estagiários interessados em ensinar a ler e escrever em português às crianças e jovens de Itacaré, Bahia, Brasil. A importância do papel: Não gostar de ler e escrever é um problema sério para as crianças de Itacaré. Infelizmente, mesmo frequentando as escolas, um número importante de crianças tem dificuldades ou não gosta de ler e escrever em sua língua nativa. Além disso, esse problema causa um impacto social de desmotivação dos jovens e desinformação sobre seu papel na sociedade, muitas vezes sendo mais difícil corrigir isso à medida que crescem. Além disso, o sistema educacional que aprova compulsivamente as crianças, leva esses jovens e adultos a terem dificuldades em encontrar empregos e motivação para a continuidade dos seus estudos, tornando difícil seu acesso ao ensino superior e técnico por incapacidade da compreensão dos conteúdos. Dito isto, o programa de português da ETIV foca principalmente em crianças e jovens de baixa renda que frequentam escolas públicas e/ou que não têm a oportunidade de receber aulas de português além da escola. As aulas acontecem no espaço de aprendizado de aprendizagem da ETIV. Principais Responsabilidades: Apoiar o desenvolvimento do currículo enquanto também preparamos os planos de aula e documentamos tudo para que ele possa ser reutilizado e construído no futuro.

Ensinar muitos dos valores centrais que estabelecem a base para o trabalho do ETIV, também listados em nosso site. Responsabilidades secundárias: Um valor importante na Etiv, é permitir que o voluntário cresça e faça uso de todos os pontos fortes que se possa ter. Portanto, incentivamos todos os nossos voluntários a participar de nossos muitos projetos e, às vezes, até mesmo a criar os seus próprios. Você precisará ajudar em outros programas, se necessário, e participar de nossos eventos mensais. Requisitos: Os voluntários devem trabalhar pelo menos 20 horas por semana. Os estagiários devem trabalhar pelo menos 30 horas por semana*. Experiência no ensino de crianças (de preferência) Diploma em Pedagogia ou Letras (de preferência) Nascido e criado em um país de língua portuguesa (de preferência) Compromisso de tempo mínimo de 1 mês *Os estagiários receberão um certificado de conclusão, que poderá ser trocado por crédito universitário.

ETIV is offering a fantastic opportunity for volunteers or interns interested in Teaching English as a second language to the children and youth of Itacaré, Bahia, Brazil. Importance of the role: One of the reasons why English is so important here is because tourism is the main economic driver in Itacaré. This means that students who receive English classes will have a much greater chance of finding work in the vast tourist Industry here. Furthermore, a part of the exam that must be taken for students to be able to receive a scholarship for university here, is offered only in English or Spanish - even though most low-income students that are attending public schools here are not receiving quality English lessons, if any at all! Therefore, it is a valuable tool of empowerment that can change lives and helps promote social justice. To continue, there are also possibilities to offer English classes to adults here as well. Teachers receive support from the English Project Coordinator or an ETIV staff member (if a coordinator is not available). Although it is highly recommended that applicants have some background or/or experience with teaching English prior to applying for this position, others are welcome to apply. The ETIV English Program focuses mainly on targeting low-income children and youth who attend public schools and/or who would not otherwise have the opportunity to receive quality English classes. Most of our classes are not conducted in a local school, but instead in our own learning space next to the ETIV volunteer house. Main Responsibilities: To support development of the curriculum while also preparing the lesson plans and documenting everything so that it can be re-used and built upon in the future. To take attendance and document outcomes including successes, challenges, and best practices for every class. To teach many of the core values that lay the foundation for ETIV's work, also listed on our website.

ETIV is offering a fantastic opportunity for volunteers or interns interested in teaching some form of arts to children in the community of Itacaré. These classes would take the form of after school activities and could involve different forms of art. If you have knowledge in drawing, painting, dancing, theater, or anything of the sort, this is a great opportunity for you to share this knowledge. Importance of the role: Living in a disadvantaged community, the children here rarely have the opportunity to participate in any activities. With that being said, we hope to offer them a space to be creative and express themselves, as well as learn extra skills. These classes could also be a chance for them to explore new hobbies that they might have overlooked otherwise. It has been repeatedly demonstrated that after school activities are extremely beneficial to children and we hope to allow the community to profit from these benefits. Main Responsibilities: To support development of the curriculum while also preparing the lesson plans and documenting everything so that it can be re-used and built upon in the future.
