Education mentors wanted

- As an educational sponsor, you can expect a flexible volunteer position: you and your sponsored child decide how often and for how long you meet with your sponsored child.

- You will meet other educational sponsors at regular sponsorship meetings, activities and events such as the summer party or the Christmas party.

- Before starting a sponsorship, we will consider together which sponsored child is right for you. In our introductory seminar, you will be well prepared for your role as an educational mentor. Supervision and further training are also always available to you.

In principle, there is no specific qualification that you must have. And of course you don't have to be able to do all the school subjects. If you are interested, simply contact us. In a non-binding introductory meeting, we will look together for possible skills that you can contribute to a sponsorship.

For example, an educational mentor may have good English skills and be able to pass these on to a young person. Or you may have the confidence to help with German homework or finding an internship. Together we will find a sponsored child who can learn from your skills.

If you would like to sponsor a child, simply send us an e-mail or give us a call. Below you will find the contact details and a contact form. We will be happy to inform you!

An educational mentor can help you with school subjects that you find difficult. Or support you in preparing for exams. If you both want to, you can also do something together. For example, go cycling or to a museum. Your mentor can show you new perspectives and how to reach your goal.

Yes, because children and young people can learn from you and gain new perspectives. You have a reliable contact person at your side. A good relationship develops between educational sponsor and sponsored child.

Very different. For example, doing homework together, studying for an exam, having a job interview or looking for an internship.

Theimportant thing is that you come to an agreement.

As a rule, you study together for a school subject that is causing difficulties. What you do can change at any time. Of course, you can also go out for ice cream or do other leisure activities.

Our experience shows that educational mentors take around 1 year. However, there is no minimum or maximum duration. It can be as long or as short as you both want. A sponsorship can also be terminated if you no longer need support or if you no longer have time for professional or other reasons.

We organize activities and creative activities at our sponsorship meetings. We have also taken city trips and excursions with our sponsored children and educational sponsors. We are always open to your ideas!

If something doesn't go well, we are always at your disposal. You can reach us by phone, SMS or e-mail. Together we will look for a solution.

In an introductory meeting, we first discuss all the important aspects of the program. We will talk about your strengths and you will be informed about the code of conduct for the prevention of violence.

An extended certificate of good conduct must also be submitted. We will cover the costs for this.

At the beginning of your volunteer work, we will invite you to an introductory seminar that will prepare you for your role and offer you the opportunity to reflect and exchange ideas with other educational mentors.

We look forward to getting to know you!
