Teaching English :
Teaching English volunteers will get the opportunity to teach students who are eager to improve their conversational English skills. Volunteers in this program will teach English to children in government schools; you can also teach in other disciplines such as math, science, music, geography, art, dance, etc. Depending on your specific area of expertise. The students that you will be teaching range from 5-16 years old, and are typical in groups of around 30-50 students per class. The subject material that you will be teaching i.e. the curriculum for the key subjects will be taken from the Nepali students' standard book. However volunteers are also encouraged to create their own lesson plans; lots of inspiration for classes can be found online as well. Classes generally run six days a week, with four to six class periods each day and a break for lunch.
Home stay / Cultural Exchange
Home stays and cultural exchange programs is a fantastic way to get more out of a trip to Nepal and can be arranged in most areas of Nepal. Participants will be placed with a Nepali family in a small rural village for the duration of their stay. This provides the volunteers with an excellent opportunity to immerse yourself in the depth of all aspects of Nepali culture, lifestyle, language, food and people. Volunteers should remember that this is a cultural exchange and that an effort to offer some knowledge of their own home culture and customs to the family with whom they stay is appreciated. During their stay, volunteers will attend 2 hours of language lessons in the morning and in the afternoon if they want. They will also have the opportunity to visit and help out at the local school. Home stay programs are best organized from August to December which is the time when most large local festivals take place. This makes for an overall more exciting experience for the volunteer. Nepali culture is distinctively friendly and open and participants are made to feel as though they are part of the family
Community Health Post Volunteer This Program places volunteers in health posts, sub health posts and health clinics. You work in either an urban or rural setting, providing primary care to locals in your specialty. Moreover, if you have doubts about whether your skills and talents are really needed in this part of the world, consider this: The doctor-patient ratio in Nepal is about 1 to 36,000. Particularly in rural areas, where much of the local people live, there is a desperate, chronic shortage of medical personnel and supplies. Medical school students' activities will include things like following doctors on their rounds, exploring different treatments for simple ailments, providing physical therapy, and participating in vaccination programs. Of all of our programs, we are perhaps most proud of the Medical Volunteer Program and the invaluable contributions of independent-minded professionals like you. You will help to relieve the suffering of others, playing a critical role in the villages and towns where you'll serve. Please feel free to contact us for more Environmental Awareness:
After completing different training of first week, volunteers will be placed with a Nepali family in one of the the program village. The host family will live normally one or h
alf hour from the school/Environmental Post. Volunteers will teach environmental awareness at the local school club or door to door of Nepali village each day, Sunday through Friday. Environmental awareness projects will be based-upon their areas of expertise and the needs of the village community. Example projects include: creating "green" clubs, planting a flower garden, planting trees, garbage management, recycling programs, Jute and paper bag training and more awareness program, etc. Volunteers may also provide own their ideas, skills and knowledge about environmental issues.

Volunteers have the opportunity to exchange ideas, collaborate in ongoing projects, teach basic English skills, help with small businesses, and be a positive role model. You can also provide support in many other ways, depending on your skills and interests and the needs of the local community.

Income Generating Training
As the status of the Nepali people is very low and to enhance their living standards we are going to provide them with INCOME GENERATING PROGRAM and to run such program we need volunteers who are willing to help them in every aspects such as financial help and income generating ideas.
Orphanage Program:
Many children become orphans and vulnerable every year in Nepal due to the high mortality rate of mothers during child birth. These children are deprived of basic need such as: food, shelter and clothing. They don’t have access to education and maternal love to go ahead. As a result they start working in their early childhood in factories, restaurants, hotels and even in others' houses as a child labor or a slave. Some of them also can be found in streets as well collecting plastic and other things to exist. These disadvantaged children need attention, love, care, and the opportunity for their better career.
Orphanage Volunteering Program of Inside-Nepal is a really great opportunity to have experience about the children situation in Nepal. Volunteers will be placed either in orphanage/children center or host families nearby where they will spend most of their time with the children, assisting them in their day-to-day routines. The children are mostly between the ages of four and fifteen and have a basic understanding of English. The general role of the volunteer will be to act as an older sibling or caregiver: to care for, look after and encourage the children. Volunteers will teach the children general life skills, including health and sanitation, as well as arts, crafts and music. You can also arrange tours, games, drawing classes, music, painting and other activities which make children happy.
Teach and learn at Momastary
In this program volunteers will teach English to the monks at the monasteries. Volunteers especially who are interested in Buddhist culture and religion may join this program, volunteers will stay near the monastery or in the monastery for a period of three months or more. Volunteers go everyday to run English practice classes to the novice monks; children and adults both may participate in the class. Inside-Nepal can provide longer and shorter stays upon request; however, one month teaching is minimum requirement. Volunteers will teach English to the monks, both young and old, for around 1 to 2 hours every day.
Organic Farm
There are several reasons to consider volunteer programs with organizations that promote organic farming. Some volunteers wish to learn how to run an organic farming operation, so that they can start a business. Other volunteers want to take a sabbatical from their desk jobs by working outdoors for a month or longer. Still others want to provide hunger relief to impoverished people domestically or abroad, without using toxic pesticides or fertilizers to produce this food.
As a volunteer with our Organic Farming and Permaculture Program, you will gain hands-on experience helping the farmers, students and local communities to cultivate and harvest organic crops, vegetables, fruits, herbs through sustainable farming methods. If you are new to organic farming and permaculture, then you can learn from the host and local farmers. We have several vibrant farms where a variety of vegetables, crops, fruits and herbs now thrive within the Kathmandu Valley, Chitwan and Pokhara.
Staying on our farms, you will have opportunities to learn more about organic farming, experience rural Nepali lifestyles and practice Nepali. Volunteers participate in the seasonal and daily rounds of the farm and household and can also engage in community projects. Here are some possibilities:
Organic Farming. Milk buffaloes, harvest vegetables, fruits, crops and herbs, pick vegetables and fruits , help design a new project, prepare compost, non-pesticide management and integrated pest management, prepare organic liquid fertilizers, or just load the biogas chamber with dung. We welcome guests to participate at all levels. In return, you’ll learn about integrating animal husbandry with crops, growing food in forest farms, organic pest control, and the crops appropriate to various seasons in this semi-tropical region.
Food Processing. Growing food is only part of the job. Next comes all the work that gets that food to the table. In Nepal, that work is often done by women, but in our home, men are encouraged to join in too. Churn butter, grind turmeric and specialty flours, prepare spicy chutneys, and learn how to make homestyle Nepali dal bhat.For more details please see this site :
