VSO – Uzbekistan Education Project

International Volunteering Opportunity: English as a
Foreign Language (EFL) Teacher (Aug 2026 – June 2027)

About VSO: 

VSO is a global development organisation that uses the power
of volunteering to tackle poverty and inequality. Rather than providing aid,
VSO works in partnership with governments and local institutions to strengthen
skills and systems so that sustainable change continues long after a project
ends. Volunteers are placed at the centre of community-led development to
empower the most marginalised people. 

Project Summary

The Government of Uzbekistan is
prioritising improved English language learning across the education system as
part of national development reforms. In partnership with the Ministry of
Preschool and School Education, VSO will place experienced and passionate
volunteer teachers in public secondary schools to strengthen English language
teaching and learning outcomes. 

Why this opportunity is
unique? 

This is more than a teaching
role — it is an opportunity to:

•       
Make a meaningful and
lasting impact on education reform

•       
Gain valuable international
experience in a multicultural environment.

•       
Be part of a global
movement for positive change

•       
By supporting teachers and
students to reach their full potential, you will leave a legacy that continues
long after your placement ends.
