Become a Tutor at Parizat Nesting Home

Parizat Nesting Home is currently home to over 40 girls from some of the most underprivileged areas of Nepal. International volunteers are valued at the center, as they can share their language, culture, and positive ideas. Volunteer tutors will be assisting students from Grade 1 to Grade 10 with a focus on the areas of English, Maths or Sciences outside of their regular classroom hours. As the girls have traveled to Parizat from different areas of the country, their education journeys may not all be the same. Having additional tutoring in the major subjects can help them to gain confidence in studying with their peers. There is a great interest from the girls to communicate with volunteers from around the world as they can gain new insights and exposure.

The center will be closed during the months of October and November due to the festival season.

Kathmandu, the vibrant capital of Nepal is nestled in a valley surrounded by green hills and mountains. The backdrop of the Kathmandu Valley provides a picturesque view of lush hills and distant snow-capped peaks. Kathmandu is home to several UNESCO World Heritage sites including ancient temples and palaces. Volunteers can also experience cultural diversity and festivals in the heart of Kathmandu.

Volunteers will need to arrive in Kathmandu 1 day prior to their assigned orientation day.
After you have registered for the program, please book your flights to arrive at Tribhuvan International Airport (KTM). Your airport pick-up is included in your Program Fee.
When you arrive at the airport, a member of the Volunteer to the World staff will be there to greet you. From your point of arrival, you will be brought to your homestay or hostel in Kathmandu. Your accommodation is covered by your Program Fee and includes the night before your program orientation.
Orientation is hosted by our local team in Kathmandu on the morning of your chosen start date and covers everything you need to know for your volunteer program in Nepal – an introduction to Nepal, Napalese customs, language training details, rules and expectations, safety, travel opportunities in Nepal, and an introduction to your project and placement. Once your orientation is complete, you’ll be ready to begin your volunteer tutoring mission!
