Volunteering at EFTC

This summer I spent 10 weeks in Guatemala volunteering at Education For the Children Foundation and had a fantastic time! It was my first time in the country and at the foundation, everyone is so friendly that I felt settled very quickly. I started helping out in English classes for 6th-9th grade but have also had the opportunity to help out in the office, helping in the younger classes, making display board and help create new activities which can be used in lessons. There are lots of opportunities to help out in a variety of ways at the project which I have loved, you are then able to apply your skills in lots of different ways. All the staff and volunteers at the foundation are extremely passionate about what they do and what they want to achieve. If you have the opportunity I really recommend visiting other places in Guatemala whilst you are here as it is such an interesting and beautiful country! I am looking forward to returning one day! :)
