GAP YEAR TEACHING PROJECTS IN TANZANIA
Tanzania's two official languages are Swahili and English, and English is very useful to
get a job in the country. Therefore it is important for Tanzanians schools to teach English
to children from the youngest age. However, working with limited resources, most schools
cannot provide quality English teachers. Native English speaking gap year volunteers help
meet this need.
Gap year volunteers in Tanzania teach English to children in primary and secondary schools, and can also teach
English to young adults. Teaching during your gap year is an opportunity to make a real difference helping
underprivileged communities to develop. This is a chance for children from underprivileged backgrounds to
interact with native speakers and improve their English through interactive activities such as drama or singing.
This is a very rewarding gap year project, during which you can make a real difference helping schools to provide
better education by teaching English in Tanzania.
A gap year in Tanzania is also an ideal opportunity to explore the country. Spending your gap year in Africa will
help you discover an ancient culture of tribes while living in the local community, and you will have the chance
to travel around during your spare time.

Testimonials: “ Although I know
I helped my students by teaching them some English skills, I learned much, much
more. Being immersed in an entirely new culture is a great opportunity to learn
more about yourself. I appreciated the strong sense of community amongst all the
Volunteers.
