WHAT WE EXPECT OF YOU?
• To be a leader! As our volunteer, you will be all in one – a language teacher, activity
leader and group leader. Perfect overall experience, isn’t it?
• To engage! Maybe you already have experience participating in similar camps? This
might be your opportunity to share your international experience with others and enhance
your own.
• To show initiative! The theme and “backbone” of the lesson programme will be

children – during classes and activities together with you.

WHAT WE OFFER YOU?
• Assistance – there will be a certified teacher from Latvia on site to assist you with
materials and advice. You will be guided on lessons plans and you will receive a help
and advice during the lessons if needed. We ensure you that the assistance you will get
will be helpful in your future career.
• Briefing – you will arrive one day early, stay in a hotel in Riga (cost of this one extra
day/night will be also covered by us) and undergo a brief training. Please, know that you
may arrive earlier or leave later than required, however, those expenses would then be
covered by you.
• Transportation – we will compensate up to 250 EUR of your plane ticket and transfer
from the airport to the camp.
