Volunteers are needed in Beja to teach conversational English to youth and adults:

As in all of Europe, English is becoming an increasingly important tool in Portugal. There are few opportunities for local people to learn from native English speakers in non-tourist areas of the country.

The volunteer work will take place at both an elementary and secondary school, as well as with retired adults at the Senior University. This local effort broadens the education and enriches the lives of older members of the community.

As with all new programs, flexibility will be required of all volunteers. In addition, mobility will be requisite in this location due to cobble stone walkways and a short walk to the classrooms.
