I had an amazing time teaching english in a budhist school! It was only 2 hours of teaching per day, and we had the weekends off. Lunch was included everyday we had classes and the food was very good. The children were between 5 and 12 years old, in some classes they had English books so it was easier to follow and to know their level. But in some classes, especially with the younger ones, it was harder to make them pay attention and we didn't had anything to follow. The host is super helpful but I wish they had put photos of the foundation before. It is a very simple place, but enought. :)

I had the best time of my life! Everything I lived there I'll remember for the rest of my life for sure! It was my first time teaching english, and I've learned a lot with the kids even if they didn't speak english very well, so it was a big challenge for me, but an incredible experience at the same time. The Foundation was okay, and the staff didn't use to go there, but it was fine because there was always someone there to help us. I really recommend it, and I really want to go back some day!

My experience in the organization was amazing! It was my first time teaching, the kids didn't speak english very well, so it was a huge challenge. The foundation was ok and there was no staff to help us and explain everything, i was luck that there were more people there. I had an amazing time and i really recommend it!!!! i hope i can go back soon

It was a nice experience in the school. Is challenging because they have difficulties to learn english but they are so nice. About the facilities are ok, I have luck that there were people there because once there you have to figurate out what to do , so there is no much contact with the staff of the foundation, and also the teachers of the school don't speak english. As I said is challenging but at the same time I spend great time there!

Very rewarding experience. Loved the contact I had with the children. Housing was great. Was a bit lost to begging with but thankfully another volunteer showed me around. Overall I would recommend it. Thanks to the foundation for this experience.

This experience was truly amazing, the children are just adorable and the place we stayed in was extremely comfortable. But I wouldn't be honest if I didn't say it was challenging. Teaching for the first time in my life wasn't easy at all at the start and neither was liviing in the organization, but I am glad I managed to do this and I enjoyed my stay a lot in the end. I would recommend volunteering here because it will definetely make you develop new skills and grow as person, leaving a permanent mark in your life.

This was epic! It was my first time teaching English to kids and doing any king of volunteer/social work. I can say that this was an experience for my whole life. The kids are just amazing! We've been lucky because the kids were on vacation and they were coming to our place to have the classes and we had the opportunity to meet kids from other cities. Teaching on the schools were really great and everybody was taking care of us all the time. Ms.Dang is incredible, she's keen to help with whatever you need! I'll travel for two years and will come back. Tips on my blog: naproadavida.com
