English is Uganda's official language and it is one area that students need help most. By volunteering, you help develop the pronunciation, vocabulary and writing skills of students. With the introduction of Universal Primary Education (free primary school education) in Uganda, the Uganda Government was faced with a dilemma. A large amount of students entitled to an education and a comparative lack of teachers. Teaching at a Ugandan. community school is an experience like no other. Although their lives have been harsh, the local children are extremely eager to learn. This project is an ideal opportunity to help students with new ways of learning to improve their understanding and speaking abilities of the English language.
