Project Details

This is a teaching project with a difference, not only do you gain all the traditional experiences that teaching in a developing country offers but you have the opportunity to do it in a spiritually settling and tranquil environment.

 

Furthermore the project is free!  Unlike many teaching projects this school has a genuine need for teachers.  As a result your contribution will be truly valued for the impact it makes on the children rather than any potential profit.

 

Teaching in Omkareshwar holds the rewards of teaching wonderfully happy, eager and grateful children. Being in Omkareshwar offers a chance to overcome modern stresses and find happiness through a simple lifestyle and reliable routine.
