Teach & Experience Nepal (TEN) is built upon three foundational pillars that ensure volunteering is reciprocal, responsible, and rewarding.
Work alongside local Nepali educators in government and community schools to foster conversational English confidence, interactive math and science exercises, and vibrant reading corners without displacing local staff.
We reject commercial voluntourism. TEN was founded to connect authentic grassroots schools with passionate international volunteers.
Programs are built upon direct requests from local school headmasters and village committees, not arbitrary commercial itineraries.
Live with welcoming host families, share home-cooked meals, and experience Nepali daily life beyond tourist trails.
You do not need to be a certified educator for general volunteering. Enthusiasm, patience, and clear communication are what matter most.
Rigorous vetting, international background checks, mandatory pre-departure training, and strict child protection rules.
Honest fee breakdown with zero hidden commissions. Host families and local coordinators are paid fairly and directly.
