This was an amazing experience. I read all the reviews saying bad things about the stay or the food. But that's not what matters! The experience was incredible! You work with kids from Monday to Friday from 7:30 until 4:30, you have a book if you need help. In the morning I was giving class on my own (very easy: days, months of the year) and afternoon I was assisting a local teacher. Kids have between 3 to 13 years old. It was really nice ! Stay at the mad monkey hostel if you prefer, it's 6$, there's a pool and you are 30min away from school. If you stay at Luch just bring mosquitoes spray.

We wished we could have stayed longer! We were warmly welcomed by luch, his lovely family and the people who worked at the school. The children at the school are bundles of joy and are so enjoyable to be around! We enjoyed lots of local food which was good, although it can be a bit repetitive. We had a comfortable room within the school, although the amenities are basic, it is all part of the cultural experience of living within a rural community. Overall it is a deserving school who are very much in need of volunteer help!

My bf and I stayed for 9 days. We were supposed to stay for 2 weeks, but there was a public holiday for a week. It wasn't communicated to us beforehand, so we left our work early. We slept at Luch's home in the living room with a half curtain for 'privacy'. (Don't sleep at school!) The family is sweet, but their English is minimal & no punctuality. There isn't much to do in the area, but the home-food was tasty (a bit repetitive) We were taken out on a fantastic tour by Luch! Teaching was disorganized with 0 plan:( Overall an educational experience to indulge and learn about local life. Thx!

I was received very affectionately by Luch, who provided me with a dinner with his lovely family. Children are very cute and love to interact with us foreigners. Regarding the stay conditions are very precarious. The dormitory is in a wooden box inside the school, with few privacy, without access to the kitchen, refrigerator, water... The school area also does not have markets, which also makes it difficult to purchase food or drinks. Beyond that, the bathroom didn't have shower and is far from the bedroom.

I stayed with luck and hi family for more than 10 days. they take me to the country side for their traditional ceremony and I learned a lot of things about their cultures.about my sleeping place I really do not like it because I don't have any room and no privacy. About teaching I always love to teach English especially to the children but in this school was alittle confusing because there was no plan for teaching, no equipment,no fixes class and hour . He told us to suddenly go to the one class for teaching with out no plan . This method is not good for the childrens .
