| Even
through Togo is a French-speaking
country, English education is
in high demand. In the Teaching
English in Togo project, volunteers
teach English classes in private,
public, or informal schools
or work as an assistant to English
teachers. Responsibilities of
volunteer English teachers include
teaching basic English, mainly
conversational. French is the
official language of Togo, but
children speak a little English.
Local teachers and schools
are happy to support their volunteer
teachers with lesson plans and
teaching curriculum. When teaching
in Togo, most schools provide
volunteers a Togo Teaching Guide
book to help prepare for daily
teaching. Volunteers can also
bring useful teaching materials
such as picture books, flash
cards, art supplies, and songs.
Classes are generally in session
five days a week.
Togo has
3 academic terms a year: September-December,
January-March and April-July,
so a minimum commitment of 2
months is required to volunteer
for the Teaching English in
Togo project.
By teaching English in Togo,
you will not only be helping
young Togolese children build
their future but also will be
making a long-lasting impact
that will benefit the entire
community.
