Why is English important?
English is the official language of fifty-three countries around the world. About 400 million people speak English, which makes it one of the most spoken languages in the world. Some experts consider English to be the modern lingua franca, much as Latin was considered the lingua franca of the ancient world.
If you speak English, your opportunities for communication increase significantly. English is spoken in the global business market in order to facilitate the business transactions of companies and corporations. Many companies require English reading, writing, and speaking in their hiring requirements.
As English language usage spread, Germans, as well as other Europeans, became aware of the importance of acquiring additional language fluencies, including fluency in English. Second language acquisitions prevent isolation and open doors to learning and communication with others across the globe, especially in the case of Europe where country borders are in close proximity to one another.
Where can I find a volunteer teaching opportunity in Germany?
The Excellence Center Europe is located in Halle/Salle, which is approximately one to two hours northwest of Leipzig and Dresden. The Excellence Center is an excellent choice for volunteering because it has a history of almost eight years in the field of teaching English as a second language.
Who do I volunteer teach at the Excellence Center and what are my benefits?
First, you will teach students of all ages: children, teens, and adults of all ages who are eager to learn English. Second, teaching English will help you in practicing and developing your teaching skills. You will practice new methods and approaches in teaching; you will learn how to manage a student-filled classroom; and you will be required to write out class plans that achieve the goals for a day’s lessons.
Teaching English will aid you in developing your personal teaching style that will address the diverse needs of your students. You will facilitate a student-centered learning environment. Teaching English will afford you the opportunity to interact and communicate with refugees from many countries, as well as local Germans from Halle.

What is included in my volunteer teaching English program?
