Help the development of underprivileged children through creative arts in
Kerala.
I have chosen this gap year
opportunity because it gives me a chance to explore somewhere new and do
something else that I enjoy. It mixes both the adventure of travelling somewhere
new and meeting new people as well as teaching something I enjoy doing to
underprivileged children. I love working with children also and I have many
young children in my family and love the atmosphere that comes with young
children.
You can go to this tip for
anything form 2 to 12 weeks and you can also go any time of the year. This is a
good way to do it as it means that you can have the flexibility to go when you
can so it doesn’t disrupt anything in your personal life. I think that I would
do it nearer the summer time as it is when I have finished college and have free
time.
The trip is run by GVI. Their
a company play a very important role in the conservation and education from
around the world. They offer al different projects for people to take part in
in more then 40 countries including Africa, America and Europe. They offer the
chance to pay a vital part in pioneering volunteer overseas.
To do this programme you have
to pay anything from £850 for two weeks and £1850 for 12 weeks. This includes
discounted services, pickups, accommodation, support, meals, training and
equipment. You have to pay for other things on top of that though including
flights, medical and travel insurance, visa costs, kit, taxes and additional
things. They also offer scholarship in which if they think that you are
exceptional then they offer you a placement, which means that you can go and
get paid after time.
From doing this experience I
think that not only will I be able to travel to a place that I have never been
to and gain new experience but I will also be able to help the less fortunate
and do some good in the world. I think it will be very enriching and a
brilliant new experience.
Plan and deliver arts and crafts workshops to children from Cape Town’s
townships.
This gap year opportunity is
very similar to the first one.
Though traveling to a well know deprived area and doing art workshops
for underprivileged communities. I get to experience a different culture and
help out people who are less fortunate. It mixes both the adventure of
travelling somewhere new and meeting new people as well as teaching something I
enjoy doing to underprivileged children. I love working with children also and
I have many young children in my family and love the atmosphere that comes with
young children.
This programme can be from 2
to 12 weeks. You can also go anytime of the year. I really like this because it
means that you can have the flexibility of going when you want and for however
long you want. It means that I can fit it around life I think that I would go
after I finish college next year so that I have more free time and allows e to
stay longer and do more.

This programme can cost
anything from £995 to £2495 for 12 weeks. This includes discounted services,
pickups, accommodation, support, meals, training and equipment. You have to pay
for other things on top of that though including flights, medical and travel
insurance, visa costs, kit, taxes and additional things. They also offer

I think I could get a lot
from this experience and not only is it a holiday in a way but it allows me to
help people who are underprivileged and give something to the community. I also
think it will be a good experience as I am going somewhere new and learning
about new cultures and beliefs. I think it will be really enriching and educational.
Assist with education projects in Cape Town’s townships and gain
additional experience on a work placement
This gap year opportunity is
slightly different to the other two as it gives the opportunity of having a job
at the end of it. You go to Cape Town and teach in deprived schools. I think it
would be a good opportunity a it could lead to something more and then if I
like the experience then I can stay for longer and let my experiences grow and
maybe even earn money. Many of the primary schools ill be working in are really
overcrowded with over 50 students per class this means that teachers are unable
to give each child individual attention. GVI has designed
a project providing individual lessons to the children that have
difficulties reading and writing.
The programme is 24 weeks
long. It starts with a 12-week volunteer workshop where you learn the essential
tools and expand your teaching techniques. They offer all different learning programmes,
including art and sport. I think that I would like to participate in the art
side of the project though wouldn’t be afraid to get stuck in with some of the
other subjects.
The program is £4095 for the
24 weeks but this gives you the chance of a paid job. This includes discounted services, pickups, accommodation,
support, meals, training and equipment. You have to pay for other things on top
of that though including flights, medical and travel insurance, visa costs,
kit, taxes and additional things. I think it is a good idea as it also gives
you the chance that if you really enjoy it and the company see that you are an
asset then they might keep you on and you can stay and carry on.

I really like the sound of
this project. It sounds like a good way to give something back to people who
are less fortunate also it seems like a good way to also get a job and get paid
by helping people and making their community better as well as doing something
I enjoy.
