WORK:

The volunteers will assemble and work in a group of children (7 - 15 years old) who would like to improve their foreign language skills, or learn some new ones to make their communication skills better. Volunteers are expected to bring teaching materials for their workshops, and ideas for teaching foreign languages (games, songs, etc.). Young teachers are especially welcome. Language workshops take about two hours per day. The rest of the working day the volunteers are assigned to separate groups and assist the local children camp leaders.
