Teaching in Schools of Kathmandu
Kathmandu has evolved into a hub for various facilities and infrastructures, drawing people in pursuit of quality education, healthcare, and basic amenities. However, the unfortunate reality is that only those with strong financial backgrounds can access top-notch schools, leaving others to attend institutions based on their budget constraints. In analysing the school landscape, institutions with high-quality infrastructure and resources inevitably incur higher costs, resulting in elevated fees. Some smaller-scale public and private schools, however, offer more financially friendly alternatives for those with limited economic means.
Our volunteering program in Kathmandu is dedicated to making a positive impact in these smaller-scale schools.
Primarily focused on teaching English to students, the program is flexible and adaptable. Upon reviewing your CV and expertise, we can collaboratively develop newer initiatives or teaching materials tailored to the specific needs of the schools. This might include teaching soft skills, other languages, sign languages, hygiene practices, IoT education, and more, depending on the unique requirements of each school. Join us in contributing to the educational landscape of Kathmandu, where your expertise can bring about meaningful change for both schools and students alike
