I loved all the people I met here!!
An is amazing, always available to help and making us feel at home.
I highly recommend it to those looking for a calmer experience with the locals, because what makes this experience worthwhile is the relationships that are created with the people of the village. We came here with the aim of teaching English but who really teaches and changes lives are them, the locals.
Thank you so much for this opportunity🤍

I had an amazing 3 wks at the eco village! I had no idea what to expect coming in but I left feeling fulfilled. I met so many amazing people, such as the volunteers, the children, & everyone living in the eco village. This was my first time teaching, & I left feeling very confident to do so again. The days consist of teaching English to the kids across different grades. The hours are flexible & there is a lot of free time. There were so many fun activities, such as the village tour, museum day, performances, & many celebrations. An is an amazing host & makes sure every volunteer has the best experience!

I spent 3 weeks in the eco village Village and it was an amazing experience. The people are so lovely and caring, and I immediately felt at home. The kids in the class were also very nice and funny, and I always had a great time with them. I will definitely come back here when I visit Vietnam again!

Wow! My 4 weeks in the village were transformative. The second you arrive, you can feel the kindness and generosity that everyone holds. An is there for you every step of the way, checking in and answering questions. The young kids are funny, energetic, and always ready to sing. The older kids are caring and determined. Honestly, I arrived in the village to teach and I've left feeling like I'm the one who has learned. Not only about the amazing history of this village, but also about the true meaning of community. Beautiful the eco village and all of the beautiful people there, you will be missed!
