A one-off cultural exchange between UCL students and local primary school children.
Do you love sharing your language, culture, or traditions? Want to inspire young learners in a fun, interactive way? Language & Culture Day is your chance to do just that.
We are looking for volunteers to deliver engaging workshops for visiting primary school pupils at UCL, introducing them to different languages, cultures, traditions, people, and geography through games, storytelling, and hands-on activities. No teaching experience is required.
