What former volunteers have to say...
Hey everyone, I'm Anton and I was doing a year of volunteering in Mwanza, Tanzania. Together with Shamiri, my organisation, I was having a very good time in Tanzania. I was working in a primary school where I taught class one together with other Tanzanian teachers. Also I was giving Computer lessons and explained programs like Microsoft Word to people that can't afford to have computers or internet at home. Another task of mine was hosting the social media accounts of the school. I enjoyed the time at work and the time together with Shamiri and the other volunteers I was staying with to the fullest and would always do it again. Thank you for everything Shamiri🤍
Hi you, We are Chiara und Genevieve. For our studies we had the opportunity to complete our last internship abroad. So we spent de last 4 weeks in Mwanza Tanzania. In the Messa Englisch Primary School in Nyegezi we taught Science, Maths and Sports. We really enjoyed the work with the children. Through Anna and Shamiri we had a great organizer for our journey. We had a fantastic and unforgettable time here. We appreciate the collection of experiences we took and are thankful for new friendships we made during our stay. Thank you shamiri for taking care of us!
Hey, I'm Maya. Last year, I had the opportunity to volunteer in Mwanza with the help of Shamiri. As part of my work, I went to Buhongwa primary school, which is a public school with multiple classes for disabled children. The goal is to support these children and, if possible, integrate them in the regular school system.I had a very memorable year full of great experiences. My time in school was unforgettable, and I learned so much from the teachers and students. I will never forget the wonderful time I had outside of school together with the volunteers I stayed with and all the experiences we made together. Thank you, Shamiri, for all your support and for making this year possible for me!
