I loved going back here! Even after two years from my last trip, I definitely felt the same community and kindness from everyone in their own way. Kay is always making sure we can enjoy our time at the academy even off hours with a dinner or just letting us use the ps4 and switch. I also appreciate how informing Cassia was about everything, and how Scarlett would help us engage with others at the weekly Event, Happy Hour, held at the academy. Hours are reasonable and communicating and hanging out with other volunteers or students is very eye opening to experience different cultures!

The dorm is cozy and Cassia did an excellent job at informing me what tasks & roles I needed to fulfill. Easy to navigate and a great surrounding area. As for the academy, it's such an amazing experience. Meeting locals & immersing yourself into their life when possible is such an incredible and socially rewarding process. Talking, sharing, listening, interacting & just spending time was such a big thing for me. Everyone has a unique story and everyone wants to learn and grow. Such a beautiful community and I am grateful to have experienced everything.

This was such a wonderful experience! It was my first time doing a language exchange, and the 'work' didn't even feel like work because the job is just to have conversations with the students. This is a Worldpackers opportunity I would love to do again. I met so many lovely people, and Bundang is a cute area not too far from Seoul!

Magnificent experience. I was lucky to be surrounded by wonderful people throughout my adventure. The volunteer team is very well managed. The school location is a short walk from the school. And I had the chance to be totally immersed in Korean culture. I leave this place with stars in my eyes

Really great the coliving and accommodation in a fun area with a lot of good food, bars, and easy access to Seoul! So many wonderful students here and I made some good friends among the volunteers. the manager Kay is also really friendly and intentional about fostering a sense of community with the volunteers. The hours are 20/ week as depicted (unless there is a special circumstance like a big event), just note that the hours are 2 to 6 hours/ day rather than 4 hours/ day. Overall I had a good time at this volunteer place, thanks for everything and see you soon!!
