This was a great opportunity to have interesting conversations with local people- adults and children with differing levels of English.
The working hours were very reasonable. However for me the quality of the accommodation was not suitable- like a heavily neglected student halls. And the organisation on arrival was not appropriate- the majority of volunteers had difficulty getting location details on arrival, or arrived off the plane and put straight into work without a moment to settle.
Possibly more suitable for younger travellers or those who don’t mind a bit of grime/disorganisation.

British Academy has been a great experience! I had a lot of fun talking with the students, got to know so much about Morrocan culture and people. The hours of work were great and during free time we got to go to some amazing organized trips. There were some problems communicating upon arrival, but other than that I had a very good time, the other volunteers and teachers were increadibly lovely! Thank you Harim🫶

People who overstay cause me a lot of trouble with management and it’s part of our culture never to tell people to leave when they are enjoying their stay.
Other volunteers become friends and sometimes come without asking and sure you have met some.I hope I will learn to say no but I’m sure I will never say it
Thank you Eila for your help and your kindness and

I had a great time volunteering at the british language academy in Casablanca. The work is actually fun and all the students you‘ll meet are really interesting and interested in you, so the work felt very satisfying to me. My personal highlight were the organized trips, especially the trip to the desert was a highlight that I won’t forget. The accommodation isn’t perfect, but fully acceptable and in some parts also something the volunteers need to work on as they‘re living there. All in all I had a great time volunteering in Casablanca and would definitley recommend this to everyone!!

Normally we shouldn’t pay Khadija,the cleaning lady to clean ,to wash and to cook for volunteers.Volunteers have to clean things they make dirty and have to fix things they break but we pay the lady to do all these things until we find very clean and responsible volunteers who will understand that their places and the kitchen and the bathroom shouldn’t be cleaned by a lady as old as their mothers

The school itself was amazing, the teachers where really nice, for most of the week just 1 hour of talking with the students which was really fun and getting to know them the more time passes. I really enjoyed it! Also being with lots of other volunteers and made many new friends . Me and others had a less good experience with Harim, his lack of communication was very confusing. We were never really sure for how long we could stay or if we had to leave our accommodation. He really had mood swings. Also isn’t too fond of Moroccans called them lazy cheaters. For the rest great experience!

When they tell you that a volunteer hasn’t helped at the school for a week because she might be sick and you go to see her but you find that she had already travelled 250 kilomètres to Marrakech ,of course when she returns to pretend being sick you will not believe her

I stayed in the berrechid school and had a great time there, This is a idea place for getting touch with locals to knowing more about Morocco culture and meeting international travelers. Aslo teachers and students were really helpful and friendly,they are aways ready to be help when needed. for the work is manengeble basically that you just need to talk to student with daily topics conversation to help them get more use to speak english and some of are really interesting to know them perspective!
Thanks Harim for been organized and can't wait to come back again! 💓
