Frequently Asked Questions Below are some frequently asked questions about how WorldTeach works in general. If you have any questions that are not answered here or by this website, please contact us. WorldTeach, the volunteer, and the chosen country's host institution all work together in a partnership. The fee that is raised by the volunteer is part of the volunteer's contribution. The fee covers costs of international airfare, health insurance, organizational support, and an intensive in-country orientation.
Airline tickets are round-trip.
If a volunteer chooses to fly on their own, WorldTeach will deduct the cost of the group airfare from the program fee. WorldTeach also employs staff to answer your questions throughout your WorldTeach experience. This intense training period includes cross-cultural adjustment seminars, training in teaching English, health and safety tips, and language lessons. Orientation prepares volunteers for living and teaching overseas. Finally, the other WorldTeach volunteers in your country constitute a built-in network of friends and colleagues to support you throughout the year.
