Conduct workshops for students in various subjects and skill development for sports, science, art, health awareness etc.
No Prior experience is needed however; volunteers should be very good in English, child friendly, caring, dedicated and have a lot of patience.

Note: Volunteers are asked to bring teaching aids (flash cards, maps, multiplication tables, and other visual aids) as well as any sports or arts and craft materials.
