Teach Swimming Lessons To Children in A Beautiful Surf Town!

ETIV do Brasil is partnering with SwimTakya to offer swimming lessons to low income children living on the coast of Bahia, Brazil in a beautiful fishing and surfing town known as Itacare. We are looking for volunteers that can volunteer with us to teach swimming lessons during the months of April and May of 2018. Once you arrive into Brazil, you will be given a day to settle into the volunteer house. Then in the next work day or two, you will be given a tour of Itacare an introduction to the NGO and an introduction to your project. Swimming lessons will be held 4 days a week, Monday through Thursday in the mornings and in the afternoons. Fridays will often be devoted to tours in and around Itacare. We will be bringing local children from their neighborhoods to the end of Praia Concha for their swimming lessons. Weekends will be kept free for volunteers to explore the other beaches, travel to other nearby destination or to simply relax in our hammocks and enjoy our garden and river views from the volunteer house.
