Teaching (Ubud)
Imagine immersing yourself in the captivating setting of Ubud, where you’ll embark on an enriching teaching program, empowering children to learn a variety of subjects in English.

Games, songs, art, sports, and music can all be powerful tools in capturing the students’ imagination. If you are new to teaching, consider teaming up with fellow participants to foster confidence and establish greater control in the classroom. The energy and enthusiasm of the students often spill over into moments of pure excitement!

After lunch, you’ll head to your assigned school, where eager students await your arrival. Engage them with your thoughtfully prepared lessons and partake in interactive activities. As the school day ends, you’ll return to your accommodation, where a satisfying dinner awaits, offering a moment of relaxation and reflection.
