Cultural Exchange in Poland.
Angloville, Angloville Junior, and Tandem House are three different types of language immersion programs which cater to different needs on both the part of the Polish participants and the native English speaking volunteers. All three focus on enabling a cultural and linguistic exchange between the native English speakers and Polish participants. There are many reasons to volunteer for Angloville. One thing’s for sure: it’ll be an extremely unique and fulfilling experience that ends with many new friends, many stories, and many new people and places to visit.
So, what are your options?
Angloville:
This is six days spent in a stimulating environment with Polish people in a series of one-on-one discussions, group activities, negotiations, hiking, walking, meals (with both Polish and English speakers), entertainment, and social time.
Angloville Junior:
This is similar to the standard Angloville, only catered to a younger demographic, from the ages of thirteen to eighteen. This is perfect for university students or recent graduates, preferably with an interest in teaching.
Tandem House:
Have you thought about teaching? Are you interested in getting your TEFL? Why pay for it? Successful participation in a Tandem House programme in addition to an Angloville programme entitles you to a complimentary TEFL voucher (for an Advanced 140-Hour Online TEFL Qualification: $465 value), while providing food and accommodation in a hands-on learning experience. You also receive a 20-hour online preparation course from IELTS, in addition to an Angloville diploma (and reference letter). This is a perfect package for people interested in a career in teaching.
