2012 Open Summer Session - Book Before March 15th
Live, Breathe, and Teach Ghana

You are invited to join us for our 2nd beachside summer session at our facilities located at the heart of Busua Beach. Our summer session directors, founders Aaron Adler and Aankit Patel, will be coordinating volunteer activities from May 15th to August 15th. You can book for a minimum of two weeks, teach and relax on the beach, or book for two months and immerse yourself in Ghanaian culture.
The custom curriculum created by our VP of education Alison Hannon will keep you busy weekdays while Busua’s resorts will keep your nights lively.
