À propos du programme

Teach English and Social Justice using popular education.


Complete training is provided and no Spanish is necessary!

Volunteers teach classes to motivated adults who are looking for better opportunities in El Salvador.
Classes are Monday, Tuesday Friday 5-6:45pm and teachers are responsible for making their own lessons plans (with any necessary support from the English school coordinator).  Volunteers must commit to one complete cycle of the class in order to provide students with an appropriate level of continuity in their learning. An intensive 3 day training session will provide information about how to teach and provide security and cultural orientation.

Volunteers manage their own time and some take more time to plan lessons than others.  They are expected to use popular education techniques and incorporate interesting activities in their lesson plans such as incorporating music or games.  Social justice also must be incorporated into lesson plans to give students the opportunity to discuss important topics in a safe environment.  Topics such as environmentalism, gender, multi-national corporations etc are great to incorporate into classes to increase awareness and understanding of such topics.  Teachers often learn as much about these topics as students as they hear different perspectives.

Extra duties such as updating our monthly bulletin board and planning activities for graduation are given to people who have the time and enthusiasm.  Other teachers offer to tutor students trying to pass the TOEFL  test, or focus their time on classroom planning.  Each teacher is assigned a class (Basic A, Basic B, Basic C, Intermediate A, Intermediate B, Advanced and Conversational) and are given a curriculum with the grammar requirements for each level.  At the middle and end of the cycle, tests are written by teachers and given to students.  At the end of the cycle, each teacher must decide if students are ready to move on to the next level or if they should repeat the level again to gain more confidence and fluency in the material.
 
Teacher meetings are planned for Monday afternoons where teachers can share successes and challenges they have had throughout the week.

Volunteers receive 2 weeks of free afternoon outings to historically or culturally important places in the surrounding area to help provide context to their work.

Volunteers who have extra time can offer to help out with other activities in the English school, or with our other grassroots programs. 
They also receive discounts on Spanish classes in the mornings if needed, and small discounts on homestays which provide breakfast, supper and orientation to your new surroundings.

CIS has over 22 years of experience of working in solidarity with the people of El Salvador.

Activités de loisirs

El Salvador is a beautiful country with many attractions close by. The CIS employees and homestay families are both happy to help you find things to do in your spare time that interest you most.
Some of the highlights include:
The 'Ruta de las Flores' or the flower route, which is located in a mountainous coffee area and is known for hikes, waterfalls and crafts.
The beaches of La Libertad: A string of beaches about an hour away from San Salvador, known for surfing and tourism. El Tunco beach specifically is a hotspot for nightlife and surf lessons
El Boqueron is a volcano on the edge of San Salvador with a place to walk near the top of the crater and has great views. On the way up the volcano, there are many beautiful restaurants with great views and also an eco-park for nature walks.
Volcanoes Santa Ana and Izalco are great hikes. They are in the same area and hikes leave from the same park. Izalco is a steep uphill climb on gravel, and Santa Ana has a breathtaking view of a turquoise sulfur lake from the top.
In addition to these, there are many beautiful other places. Some people even zip over to Guatemala for the weekend!

In the US, I teach English to adult immigrants in a couple of settings. One is at a community college, where the context is academic ESL. The other is at a community agency where the focus of the curriculum is survival/acculturation. I was looking for a way to try teaching abroad, and my preference ...

2020 at English & Social Justice Teacher

I am so thankful for the opportunity to volunteer with CIS. The work they do extends beyond the English classroom and covers different areas all across El Salvador. I have learned so much about solidarity and about the country. I feel CIS has become a second home and a second ...
Teaching English and Social Justice at the CIS is a great way to spend time in El Salvador and provides a great oppotunity to learn Spanish. I had taught some English before as a volunteer, but I appreciated the training and experience. The students became my friends and class involved discussing ...
I can’t remember exactly how I found CIS’ website. I was studying at university at home in the UK, and looking for a chance to be involved in language learning. There is no shortage of specially arranged programmes to students- companies promising to arrange all sorts of experiences in all kinds ...
