Teaching Abroad in Cameroon

One of RUDEC’s central priorities is to educate underprivileged children who will be able to contribute to the development and growth of the region. There are often up to 150 students in classrooms and so many students do not have any personal attention from instructors. To alleviate this issue, volunteer instructors are placed by RUDEC into local schools in order to contribute their educational experience and to help readjust the detrimental student-teacher ratio. Volunteers are also asked to run after-school and free programs for tutoring in order to provide a supplement for classwork. Volunteers will also run summer schools during holidays. We also ask experienced volunteers to develop educational seminars to show local teachers the most up-to-date teaching practices.
