LEADERSHIP OPPORTUNITY - WORKING WITH STREET CHILDREN

Jan 23, 2008

The 15 May School is a school and shelter for ex-streetchildren from the poorest area of District 1, Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), Vietnam. Not only does it provide primary and secondary level schooling free of charge to over 250 students in the area, but it also provides shelter for 30 children who have nobody to care for them.

They are looking for 2 enthusiastic volunteers who are interested in being the organizers/coordinators for their English conversation classes.

Responsibilities:

- Liaise the volunteers closely with the teachers to ensure that the conversation classes build on what the children are learning in the classroom.
- Email volunteers reminding them of the forthcoming class and telling them what the teachers would like us to concentrate on in the conversation, or suggesting games.
- Motivate and keep the students excited.

Time commitment:

The classes run for one hour from 9.30am to 10.30am on Tuesdays.

Who to contact:

The best thing would be to come along to a session and see how it goes. The next conversation class will not be until after the Tet holiday on Tuesday 19 February.
