Saturday, 31 Mar 12Teachers Expeditions - Jinja, Uganda

[DATES FROM THE 31st MARCH - 14th APRIL 2012 ]
or
[DATES FROM THE 28th JULY - 11th AUGUST 2012 ]

This is an amazing experience for student teachers or qualified teachers.

As a qualified and experienced teacher herself Kathy Smedley (co-founder of Act4Africa) knows the immediate impact this kind of life-changing trip can have.
Act4frica has worked with and cultivated strong relationships in the schools within Jinja for the past decade.

Kathy herself admits,
"This is a character-building adventure taking you directly into the heart of African culture to not only meet the warm-hearted and generous-spirted Ugandans but to share, contribute and extend your teaching expertise and learn much more than you probably are able to give.

It's a phenomenal opportunity to be part of an amazing team with a shared vision & undoubtedly to also make friends for life!".

The experience will include:

- Working in schools alongside Ugandan teachers to share ideas and experiences.

- Taking small groups of very able children or children who need extra help.

- Using your own skills and passion to make a difference to some of the world's poorest children.

- Gaining insight into a different culture by working at the heart of the community.

- Making an immediate and real impact in the lives, and future of others.

- The opportunity in your time off to explore the riches of the African culture and the beautiful country.

Act4Africa have 10+ years experience taking a cross-section of volunteers from ages 18 to 70 years to Africa for periods from anything from 3 to 12 months.
