The Experience

Help Koreans practice their English by discussing interesting topics and sharing new ideas! It is less than 15 hours per week. 1 to 3 Koreans per group for less than 4 hours per day, with a 10-minute break in between. It could be very boring to talk to the same person or people for 4 hours straight, so we always rotate to meet new people. We'd like you to try to help them communicate and practise English with them.

This was my first volunteer experience and I enjoyed it alot! I loved meeting the locals in the host, I also learned alot from our conversations and made lots of new friends. The apartment location is close to the station so it's very convenient and Oscar is a friendly host. Thank you for a memorable experience! (P.S fix the beds)

This was my first time volunteering and it's the best decision l've ever made! I met amazing people, made new friends and got to connect with locals. The apartment where we stay is near the metro station, and Seoul is just and hour away. The only downside is the food, it's mostly ramen, eggs, and rice. But overall, it was a great experience !!

This is a great work the host! It's fun to live with the other volunteers and meet locals. The apartment is near the train station so it's easy to get to Seoul, although you might get tired of being on the train. On the plus side, the host is cheaper than Seoul and has some great food. You should know that the beds in the apartment are terribly broken and uncomfortable, otherwise it's a good place.

This was my first volunteering experience, and I stayed for almost two months. Oscar was very kind and always ready to help with any problem. During my time here, I met so many people and learned a lot about Korean culture and society. The working hours are very reasonable, and overall, I had a great experience. The apartment is comfortable as long as everyone maintains order together with the other volunteers. I'm really happy with my time here and would love to come back in the future!!!

I had an amazing time! the host allows you to connect with the people and learn about Korean culture straight from Korean people. I made so many friends there with both the other volunteers and the students, and I always felt very welcomed by both. Oscar is lovely and very understanding, and work doesn't really feel like work most of the time. the host is not as busy as Seoul is, but it's still close enough so that it's not super annoying to get there. For me, perfect experience!
