Ghana

Travel in Ghana highlights the two contrasting sides of modern Africa; the huge wealth of the few and the endemic poverty of the majority. Education plays an important role in Ghana, but in many areas teachers are in short supply so the opportunities for teaching English in Ghana are many and varied.
