My staffs are much experienced and well known about the western culture and working system that is very important working with International volunteers. Volunteers have the opportunity to participate in a variety of educational and community aid programs. We provide Nepali Language, Culture and staying with host family training for foreign volunteers who wish to render their services to Nepal. We send trained volunteer to Orphanages, Children’s centers, schools and communities to generate awareness regarding environmental issue, orphans care, sanitation, income generating initiative, teaching English and health care.
This will give you a chance to make an important contribution to the people of Nepal and whilst gaining an in depth experience of the country and its culture, which will stay with you the rest of your life. Our Nepal school expeditions are completely tailor- made to your requirements. We offer a wide range of activities and experiences that combine physical, intellectual, social and environmental challenges.

We are looking for volunteers/students from your School/university/organization who can come to Nepal and help our people by teaching English, Awareness about Sanitation and the Environment, Cultural Exchange, and staffing orphanages, as well as many other social aspects. While REAL Nepal has only been operating for four years, we have already had over 7. US Peace Corp, UK SPW, GVN and other organizations. Many other short term (less than one year) volunteer programs are very expensive, with some approaching thousands of dollars. Real Nepal was formed specifically because many other programs were cost prohibitive, and we offer low rates and better facilities. We would like to request you to provide information about ERN to your potential Staffs / students / Volunteers who might be interested in our organization.
Our website is http: //www. Our programs run throughout the year and are available to both School / University groups and individuals. Our expeditions are designed to enhance classroom learning with real- world experiences.

TBB's gap year programs help students find the purpose and direction they need to be fulfilled and to change the world. Come find your program! USA Gap Year Fairs is a national circuit of events that bring together reputable Gap Year organizations, students and parents, and Gap Year experts.
All we ask is that you have a genuine desire to help people and are committed to seeing the programme through. Real Nepal’s Resource Centers offer English language instruction and cultural interaction to young people and adults in the community. Ultimately, the philosophy is that improved language skills will lead to employment, particularly in the Chitwan and Pokhara tourist areas as well have enormous advantage in any further education: English language is the medium for tertiary education in Nepal.
- In the professional or career world, a gap year is a year before going to college or university and after finishing high school or taking a year off before going into.
- Parents, teens, and educators can't say enough about the benefits of taking a gap year before college. Study abroad gap years are common, but work experience programs.
- The United States has anything you might hope for from a gap year. This is your chance to take your time exploring one of the most exciting and outgoing.
Being able to consolidate classroom knowledge with a native or very good speaker of English is an enormous advantage in learning English and learning about cultures is also enriching and important.(B) Environmental Awareness. Volunteers will teach environmental awareness at the local school and/or Environmental Post for 2 to 4 hours each day, Sunday through Friday. Environmental awareness projects will be defined by the individual volunteers based- upon their areas of expertise and the needs of the village community. Example projects include: creating “green” clubs, planting a flower garden, planting trees, garbage management, recycling programs making a smokeless stove, building a toilet pit, etc. Volunteers may also provide assist to youth clubs or women’s groups in the community sharing their ideas, skills and knowledge about environmental issues. After completing the Nepali language and cultural training, volunteers will be placed with a Nepali family in one of the program villages.
The host family will live no more than one half hour from the school/Environmental Post Real Nepal local coordinator will be helping to volunteers.(C)Cultural Exchange & Home- stay Program. Home- stays and cultural exchange programmes can be arranged in most areas of Nepal with our 5. Host- families. Participants will be placed with a Nepali family in a small rural village for the duration of their stay.
GAP Year Programs and College Admission. Only recently have more American students begun to consider that the rush to complete the BA is more.
This provides the volunteers with an excellent opportunity to learn about all aspects of Nepali culture, lifestyle, language, food and people. Volunteers should remember that this is a cultural exchange and that an effort to offer some knowledge of their own home culture and customs to the family with whom they stay is appreciated. During their stay, volunteers will attend 2 hours of language lessons in the morning and in the afternoon.
They will also have the opportunity to visit and help out at the local school. Home stay programmes are best organized from August to December which is the time when most large local festivals take place. This makes for an overall more exciting experience for the volunteer. Nepali culture is distinctively friendly and open and participants are made to feel as though they are part of the family. Real Nepal local co- ordinator will be on hand to help volunteers.(D )Health Post & Sanitation Issues. Real Nepal’s health post program provides a wide variety of experiences depending on the time of year. While at your placement, volunteers may be doing very hands- on work such as giving shots and treating wounds; conducting home- visits; developing and delivering information on health issues such as birth control and personal hygiene; providing office support; and providing knowledge transfer to the health post doctors on the latest first aid techniques.
Volunteers usually work approximately two to four hours a day in the health post, supplemented by teaching health education classes at a local government school or women’s group. Prior to your placement at the health post, volunteers will receive two weeks of Nepali language and cultural training. During their placement, volunteers will stay with a local Nepali family located within a half- hour to an hour from the post. An Real Nepal local co- ordinator will be available to help volunteers.(E )Teaching various subjects in Schools.
