Nepal
Nepal is the country where the apostle of peace Lord Buddha was born. Buddha spread the message of Buddhism all across the world. Tibet is also a Buddhist country and there are more than 130,000 Tibetans who live in exile and out of that over 20% of them are living in Nepal . Despite of all difficulties, these exiled Buddhists are practicing their religion and rebuilding their cultural heritage in their own little ways. In this mission of the Tibetans in Nepal, education of the children is the top most priority and command of English is very important.
The Tibetan children are very keen to learn and improve their conversational English to brighten their future and also to be able to translate and preserve the holy Buddhist scriptures. Primary education schools, in the Tibetan Children's Village were established by the Tibetan community in Nepal. These schools support religious practices in their studies and provide schooling in Buddhist philosophies as well as a variety of other areas such as English and computer skills.
The schools in Tibetan Children's Village are resource poor, and under staffed. These schools also need teachers who can teach good English to the students. Apart from teaching English, volunteers can also teach extra curricular activities like sports, drawing, music, etc to develop the perceiving power of the children and also help in the administrative works.
