GET INVOLVED
The Helga Todd TEF recruits through occasional advertisements in The Guardian as well as through personal contact and word of mouth. See a typical advert below:
Most, though not all, of our volunteer trainers are recently retired education professionals from the UK, who apply for a range of reasons. All have a sense of adventure and believe their professional experience and knowledge will be useful in a new setting.
Why did they apply?
