🔷 Activity Details
Description
The volunteers will support the daily school life in the Montessori Wuerzburg Schule. She or he will get to know how the students develop the learning process based on Maria Montessori’s pedagogy. The volunteers will have the opportunity to get involved in different activities and groups within the school and they have the option to develop specific offers for kids matching their interests and skills.
Accommodation, food and transport arrangements
The accomodation for the volunteer is planned in a shared apartment with two more volunteers. It is 5 km away from Würzburg city centre (good tram connections) and 10 km away from the school. You have your single room with shared kitchen and bathroom. You will get food money (around 345€/month) and pocket money (7€/day) to cover your daily expenses. As well, you will get a monthly ticket for public transport all over Germany and it may be possible to borrow a bike from the school.
Training during the activity
The Jugenbildungsstätte Unterfranken (Coordinating organisation) will offer you a German language course in small groups and organize monthly meetings to build up a volunteers net. During the project, there are two seminars - On arrival training and Midterm meeting- organised by the German National Agency, both compulsory. It will be a chance to get to know volunteers doing their ESC project in other German cities and reflect on different topics.
Participant profile
The volunteer should be very motivated to work with children between 6 and 15 years. It will be important to have a positive attitude, to be flexible and open to new ideas and ways of teaching/learning, as the school follows an alternative methodology based on free and hands-on work. Good language knowledge either in German or English would be needed.
