volunteering in Varese -Makula
Centro di Servizio per il Volontariato dell'Insubria
VARESE, Ιταλία
Περιγραφή
Makula runs a middle school for students aged 11–14, based on an innovative, active and democratic pedagogy. Its curriculum values individual attention, cooperative learning and strong student–teacher relationships. Alongside core subjects taught dynamically (including writing through the WRW method), the school offers workshops in art, technology, music and art history, as well as English, Spanish, weekly drama and philosophy classes. The volunteer will be fully involved in daily school life, supporting curricular activities and workshops, working with students individually and in groups, and contributing to outdoor learning, sports and greenhouse-based environmental education. They will also help promote school initiatives through photos, videos and social media content, and support local youth participation by engaging in events, exhibitions and communication campaigns.
