Are you passionate about education and eager to make a difference through language learning? Our English Teaching Program in Morocco gives you the chance to support students of all ages in developing their English language skills—opening up new academic, professional, and personal opportunities for their future.
English is in high demand in Morocco, especially in urban areas where job markets are becoming increasingly global. However, access to quality English education remains limited—particularly in community centres, NGOs, and low-income schools. As a volunteer, you’ll help bridge that gap by assisting in classrooms, leading small-group activities, or even running full lessons depending on your comfort and experience level.
This flexible and rewarding placement allows you to use your creativity and cultural background to inspire confidence and engagement in learners. Whether you’re teaching basic vocabulary to children or helping young adults with conversation practice, your presence helps build the skills they need to succeed.
You don’t need to be a certified teacher to take part—just a good command of English, a willingness to help others, and the confidence to take initiative in the classroom. You’ll work alongside local educators who will help guide you, and you’ll receive orientation and support to ensure your experience is impactful and enjoyable.

Assisting local teachers in delivering English lessons
Leading basic grammar, reading, writing, or speaking sessions

This community-driven initiative was created to connect passionate volunteers with local associations, daycares, and grassroots organisations across Morocco—in cities like Rabat, Salé, Casablanca, and Marrakech.

By working directly with local partners, this platform ensures that every volunteer placement is meaningful and well-supported. From early childhood centres to women’s empowerment initiatives, each collaboration focuses on real needs within the community and fosters long-term development through global exchange.

The mission is simple: to create authentic, impactful volunteer experiences that benefit both the local communities and the volunteers themselves. With a strong belief in cultural exchange and mutual learning, the platform offers flexible project options across various social and educational fields.
Volunteers are encouraged to immerse themselves in Moroccan life—whether through Arabic or French language classes, local excursions, or living with a host family—while making a tangible contribution to community wellbeing. The vision is a world where travel is more than sightseeing; it’s about connection, contribution, and shared growth.

Morocco – A Tapestry of Cultures and Colours
Located at the crossroads of Europe and Africa, Morocco is a country that surprises and enchants at every turn. With landscapes that range from the Atlas Mountains to the vast Sahara Desert, and coastlines that stretch along both the Atlantic and Mediterranean, it’s a land of diversity and discovery.
You’ll find Islamic, Berber, Arab, and French influences woven into every part of life—from the food and fashion to the music and architecture. Wander through maze-like souks, sip mint tea in a quiet riad, or take in the call to prayer echoing through a centuries-old medina. Life here moves at its own rhythm.
The climate is typically warm and dry, with cooler temperatures in coastal cities and during winter months. It’s the perfect setting for both exploration and reflection—where each day offers something new to see, taste, and learn.
Volunteering in Morocco offers more than just meaningful work—it’s a gateway to rich experiences, stunning landscapes, and vibrant cultural adventures. In your free time and on weekends, you’ll have countless opportunities to explore the country and connect more deeply with its spirit.
