    Project details

    Dreaming of Teaching English in Ghana? International Volunteer HQ’s Teaching English project is a great opportunity for volunteers to help with lessons in schools in rural Ghana. A shortage of teachers in these areas means even in a country where English is spoken, there are often few quality learning opportunities for students outside the main cities. Native and fluent English speakers bring a high level of expertise which can make a huge difference to the learning ability of students.

    What to expect and how you’ll make an impact

    Although Ghana is officially an English-speaking country, under-resourcing means school children often don’t have the best opportunities to learn the language. Volunteers who can speak English fluently can provide assistance and guidance that can help boost the quality of education especially for disadvantaged students in rural areas.

    Teaching English volunteers will be based in schools in rural communities, either teaching solo or assisting local teachers. Duties often include:

    • Teaching English
    • Tutoring students
    • Teaching music, math, geography and arts
    • Lesson planning

    You are welcome to bring your own resources to assist with these lessons.

    Please note the school year ​is broken up into three terms, with four week breaks in between.​ Because volunteers assist children in schools, if you apply for the Teaching project during these ​holiday ​breaks, it will be unavailable. During these times, you can instead work with school directors and placement staff on school holiday workshops​. These often include fun and physical activities that you will be able to lead in English.

    This program is ideal for:

    Fit and active volunteers who are keen to get stuck in with a range of farming tasks, including some that can be physically demanding. No prior knowledge of farming is required but volunteers with farm experience may be able to assist in developing the project and teaching new techniques to locals.

    Project details

    Interested in getting your hands dirty as an Agriculture volunteer in Ghana? International Volunteer HQ’s Agriculture project aims to be a sustainable food provider for IVHQ’s Childcare volunteer placements in the region. Volunteers will gain experience in agriculture and animal husbandry while helping local farmers provide food and resources for disadvantaged children in their communities.

    What to expect and how you’ll make an impact

    Food can be scarce for those in low-income communities in Ghana, and there is much to be gained by having it grown by local agriculturists. Volunteers can be a great help to farmers who need extra pairs of hands to scale their production and make their operations more efficient and sustainable. The focus of this project is to address the difficulties facing IVHQ’s Childcare projects in terms of providing a sustainable food source for the children. To support the placements where our Childcare volunteers work, the produce grown through the Agriculture project is donated to supplement the children’s diet.

    As an Agriculture volunteer your tasks will depend on the season and your exact placement, which will be determined based on the needs of the local community.​ You should expect volunteer work to be physical and labor intensive. More experienced volunteers may be able to assist in developing the project and teaching new techniques to locals, helping them to farm their crops and animals more effectively.

    Farming volunteer work usually involves:

    • Helping with crops including corn, eggplants, capsicums and palms
    • Farming animals like pigs, rabbits, goats and chickens
    • Clearing and developing land for crops
    • Fertilizing, planting and nurturing crops
    • Teaching farming techniques to locals
    • Fencing
    • Assisting with purchasing, moving and caring for stock

    Work on the Agriculture project usually stops during the hottest period of the day. During the break you are able to help with other projects if you like.

    • Providing much-need help to local farmers
