Volunteer development takes many shapes and forms, both across formal and informal educational settings such as schools as well as the community learning and development sector. Here we focus on the development and delivery of learning and practice products and services for volunteer participants.

If you are interested in a teaching placement, you don't have to be a teacher.This role is suitable for a caring, motivated, and self-directed person.Not only do we need volunteers for teaching English, you can also teach Math, Science, Art, Sports, Computers and Music.

You can work in rural or inner-city schools, or you can help to run both academic and athletic after-school programs.

Volunteer work expectation

Volunteers are expected to work a minimum of 4 to 6 hours a day, 5 days a week from Monday to Saturday. Sundays are days off.

Volunteers are able to work beyond this minimum commitment.

It is vital that you are flexible and willing to adapt to situations as they arise. You cannot predict what each day may bring. We also ask that you are prepared to follow any rules set by us or our partners to ensure continuity of the program. New initiatives you may wish to set up at your project should be discussed with UD volunteer Development and your project supervisor before implementation to ensure that what you set up is appropriate for the project.
