My experience at the eco village was exceptional: the villagers are so welcoming and they really do open their hearts to everyone. The kids are incredible - so kind, friendly and funny. We got to sleep in the school with the kids, which was fun, though do be prepared that this is a community so there's not a lot of private space (I work online and I struggled sometimes to find an isolated spot). The food was sooo good - I have missed it every day since I left! You do work from day 1, so I would prepare some lessons and activities before you go. I hope you visit the eco village and have an amazing time :)

Where do I even begin? the eco village Village is truly a special place to be. An and all of the community members are so wonderful, the work is rewarding, and the food is delicious as well. I'd recommend being prepared to teach English to children of all ages and take the initiative to create your own lesson plans/have a little experience teaching if possible. Overall, I couldn't have been happier with my experience, and I am so grateful to the eco village and An. I hope to see you all again!

The eco village Village is truly one of a kind! Each community member greets you with a smile so large it warms your heart. The kids are precious, fun to teach, and will bring so much joy to you! Anh is an incredible teacher/coordinator, always ensuring her volunteers are comfy and happy. There is an abundance of delicious traditional food here! I've learned so much from the beautiful ways/ lifestyle here at the eco village. 10/10 I recommend this stay!

I love the eco village! We met so many wonderful people - they made us feel welcome from day 1. This experience is a mixture of teaching English and helping out in other ways (e.g., I had fun working in the communal kitchen). Totally recommended to other volunteers. One note - I'd recommend preparing some ideas for teaching English in a fun way (we taught a lot of pop song lyrics). Class is less grammar and more getting the kids comfortable speaking. Kids are K-8 and have a range of English knowledge. They have something really special and I'm grateful to have shared in it. Thank you the eco village!
