Teaching Assistant

Kenya, volunteers, teachers,

Find volunteer opportunities as a teaching assistant and make a meaningful impact in classrooms around the world. Teaching roles are a popular choice for volunteers who want to combine travel with service, while gaining hands-on educational experience.

As a teaching assistant, your responsibilities may include preparing lesson materials, helping students with their work in smaller groups, practicing conversational English or other subjects, and offering one-on-one support to learners who need extra attention. You may also be asked to help with classroom organisation, after-school activities, and creative projects such as art, sports, or drama. These opportunities are designed to support local teachers rather than replace them, ensuring that your role complements the work of the school or community staff.

Volunteering abroad as a teaching assistant also allows you to immerse yourself in a new culture. Living and working alongside local communities provides insight into different education systems and teaching styles.
