Hi, I'm Becky. Your teacher has asked me to talk to you all about doing volunteer work<br />in Africa. I worked in South America a few years ago and then in Africa last year for<br />6 months. It was amazing. There are a lot of jobs for volunteers in Africa. I chose<br />to work with animals and I helped look after young elephants. Many people do volunteer<br />work in other countries but you must think about it carefully. It isn't easy work. You<br />have to work long hours and sometimes things are very different from your own country.<br />For example, the weather is sometimes terrible. It can be very hot or very cold. People who<br />volunteer should be fit and healthy and also interested in different cultures. You learn<br />a lot of new things when you work as a volunteer. Also, you don't work on your own. You work<br />with a team so you need to be a good team player and have good communication skills.<br />If you think it's right for you then you can go online to volunteertoday.com or you can<br />call them at 555-334-1565 or 555-334-1665. I'll give you my number 2 in case you have any<br />questions. That's 555-236-4556. Hi, I'm Becky. Your teacher has asked me to talk to you all<br />about doing volunteer work in Africa.
