This educational project for the deaf is looking for volunteers interested in helping its teachers in the elementary school. Volunteers do not need any experience, only the desire to help the deaf students in any way they can. Volunteers can assist with different activities in the school such as helping the children (ages 6 to 15) with maths, reading, writing, etc., as well as preparing pamphlets, organizing the library, and special events such birthday parties. Since the students are deaf, the ability to speak Spanish is not so important. More important is a smiling face, caring heart and the ability to learn the basics of sign language. Free classes in sign language will be provided.
There is no cost to participate but volunteers are responsible for covering their living expenses. The project helps volunteers find suitable accommodation.
