Teach English and surf in Bali

The volunteer teaching program in Bali includes three surfing lessons.
Last Friday on WPIX-TV, Afar co-founder Joe Diaz recommended five trips that might inspire you to change your career. If you’ve ever considered becoming a teacher–or a professional surfer–check out this program in Bali:
Trip: “Surf and Teach English in Bali” volunteer program with i-to-i
Overview: On the tropical Indonesian island of Bali, you’ll teach English to kids at a public school where funding is not available to hire native English speakers. You’ll especially focus on practicing conversational skills using games, songs, and story-telling—not just a grammar book. You’ll also learn to surf on this island known for its waves.
Skills you’ll learn: How to teach English as a Second language through an online TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) course and classroom practice; how to surf through three lessons included with the program.
Other highlights: Meeting mellow Balinese surfers while waiting for the next set of waves. Exploring the island’s beautiful beaches and green highlands
Price: from $1,299 for three weeks
Four other career-changing trips:
- Work alongside marine biologists in Greece
- Learn to cook in Morocco
- Live the life of an organic vintner in New Zealand
- Help healthcare workers in Guatemala
