Teaching English in the Indonesian Rainforests
We invite native English speakers to join us teaching for periods of 3 months to 1 year in the tropical rainforest regions of Indonesia. The SEBARI foundation offers scholarships for successful candidates!
Joining the SEBARI team as a volunteer can be a rewarding experience. The chance to really get to see the rainforests of Indonesia and to experience what life is like for the local population groups is a unique opportunity.

The SEBARI organisation works closely with other non-profit organisations who are also actively helping to protect what remains of the primary rainforests in Borneo and Sulawesi. Volunteers can use a SEBARI scholarship to combine teaching work with field research in a variety of areas such as wildlife conservation, forestry and tropical agriculture, biology, ecology, economics, medicine and many other areas, with full board an lodging paid for by the scholarship. But also young native English speakers with the necessary qualifications who simply want to do something to help will be welcome to join our program.
On the home page of our Sintang school website (see below, currently just a design template) you can see the text: "Internet adalah.....".
This translates to:
"The internet is the largest knowledge bank in the world
English language is the key to this bank"
Access to higher education in Kalimantan and Sulawesi is limited. By offering English language courses to local communities in towns and villages of the tropical rainforest regions the SEBARI foundation hopes to open a whole new world to literally thousands of young people. They can gain access to knowledge and learn how to create enterprises. In doing so they can help to create a sustainable environment from which the whole world will profit.
These at any rate are some of the thoughts which have led to our plans for founding schools for English language with the help of volunteer native English speakers.
