Join our efforts to prepare adults, young and old, to integrate into European life through English language education.
Assist and cooperate with teachers to address the needs of adult students in the Mavrovouni Refugee Camp who would like to learn English. The government-run Mavrovouni Refugee Camp is assisted by Eurorelief which is a Greek non-governmental organization founded on Christian values which seeks to support those who are suffering in crisis situations.
This organization has been active on the island and in the refugee camps since the beginning of the refugee crisis in 2015. The volunteer teacher would be working with the adult refugee population, with people who have fled their home countries because of war and strife.
Both young and older adults attend these classes, some literate and some not. They need a kind, experienced and highly effective teacher who will use their skills to help them prepare for life in Europe through English education.
