Teach in Nepal this August-September with optional hiking add on 2025/26

Mondo Foundation

15 Aug 2026 - 22 Oct 2026
Spend 4 unforgettable weeks teaching in rural Nepal on a summer volunteer placement designed to make a genuine difference. Working alongside local educators and within a welcoming community, you will support children’s learning in a setting where enthusiasm, creativity and encouragement can have a real impact. Nepal is one of Mondo’s key student programmes, aimed at volunteers who are passionate about education, open-minded, resilient and keen to contribute positively as part of a team.This is much more than a placement abroad. You will be travelling with other students already signed up, with shared time and possible pairings during the placement, while still gaining your own immersive experience. The programme runs every summer, and for 2026 the confirmed dates are 22nd July - 29th August and a second group on 15th August - 22nd September.Volunteers can expect to develop valuable skills that will stay with them long after the placement ends. These include communication, teamwork, adaptability, cultural awareness, leadership and confidence. Previous volunteer reflections from Nepal also highlight the value of creativity in the classroom, relationship-building with local teachers and host families, and the personal growth that comes from living and working in a very different environment.There is also the option to add trekking after the teaching placement, giving you the chance to experience Nepal’s remarkable landscapes as part of a wider adventure.Students are asked to fundraise in support of the programme, helping make this opportunity possible while contributing to longer-term impact. For anyone looking for a summer that combines purpose, challenge, community and personal growth, volunteering in Nepal is a truly rewarding choice.
