The Experience

We are looking for volunteers to speak English with our students. We are in Hong Ngu Town, Dong Thap Province. We have the sweetest children that are so interested to learning English from foreigners. Please come to visit our center. We opened this English Center to help children who don't have a lot of money. We rarely have many chances to speak english with foreigners. We have no foreigners in this town.

Teaching with mr Ty was a truly special experience. If you want to immerse yourself in real Vietnamese culture and at the same time give something back to the community, this is the perfect place to go. Mr Ty is incredibly nice and the students are very welcoming. However, there is not a lot to do in Hong Ngu city and as a solo-traveller it can sometimes feel like you're stuck in the school. I would still recommend this place, but perhaps not for much longer than 2 weeks.

Mr Ty was very welcoming and friendly. I also got to play and learn tennis with Mr Ty every other morning. We always have delicious meals together with all the volunteers. Be prepared to work three times a day, (morning, afternoon and evening)as the students come in different timing. Other than having conversations together, we also have the flexibility to plan our lesson/activity to do with the students.

It was the second volunteer experience through this apps for me and I really enjoyed it. Mr. Ty was always so friendly and supportive. I could learn a lot about Vietnam by children and they were super friendly too. In free time, we enjoyed football and gym. I will never forget this experience. I strongly recommend you to join this volunteer!!!!!

The experience has been absolutely enriching, Ty is always taking care of us and satisfying all our needs. He is really a marvellous person. Kids in ths school are very sociable, open mind and so kind every each of them! The local culture has a lot to discover, its city environment as well as a calmer countryside. I would totally repeat the experience!

I want to truly thank teacher Ty and all the students I had the opportunity to spend time with because for me this has been a life changing experience. I'll never forget my time in Hong Ngu! Ty is an amazing person who made me feel at home from day 1. We shared very nice moments teaching, playing football and eating outside. His kindness really had an impact on my experience. I'm glad I had lots of students to speak with, from age 5 to 35.I could have an interesting conversation and a laugh with everyone knowing them better, what they do, what they like to do. I miss you all!I'll come back!
