It was a truly wonderful experience. I really enjoyed teaching English. The children are very respectful; they're a bit shy at times, but they're always keen to meet new volunteers. The other teachers are very caring and really friendly. I taught at Mr Ali's home and in local schools. I usually taught in the evenings, so I had the mornings and afternoons to myself and time for other activities.

Hi, Luca. Thank you for joining us. Our middle school students are very grateful to you; they really enjoyed interacting with you. Greetings to you from all the teachers. They hope you’ll visit Blitar again someday.

My experience in the host SCHOOL was very nice. I got the chance to meet the locals, to visit different schools, to try local foods and also to have the host. The classes at home are nice because the groups are small. Mister Ali is a very friendly person who is ready to help you in anything you need. You will live the javanese culture and also will have time to explore around. I recommend volunteers who are interested in living an authentic experience to come here. You wont regret! Thank you guys for everything.

My husband and I spent two weeks volunteering, an experience that truly touched our hearts. From the very first day, we were welcomed with warmth, kindness, and thoughtful gestures, including a generous welcome meal and a symbolic scarf that made us feel deeply valued. Mr. Ali guided us through the village with care and even arranged a small certificate ceremony that felt meaningful and sincere. Although we did not stay in the accommodation due to hot water needs, the home was clean and the host family was welcoming. We left grateful, changed, and inspired by human connection. Forever. Truly.

Hi, Emilio and Marcia. Thanks for joining our volunteers program.
You truly have an extraordinary ability to teach. You are able to teach children, teenagers, and adults of various skill levels. Our students have made significant progress. Two weeks is too short, we want you to stay with us longer. I hope that someday you will return to Blitar. We love you both 🥰🙏🏻

We had a wonderful experience in Blitar at the host School, fully immersed in local Javanese culture, making new friends. Mr. Ali is welcoming, caring, well organised, providing lesson plans while allowing freedom in teaching. The children are lovely and respectful. We joined local celebrations, schools and NGO for single mothers, creating touching memories. The host family was kind, attentive, warm, offering a clean home and delicious food; we later chose another accommodation because of hot water. Mr. Ali even organised a ceremony for handing out the certificates! Terima Kasih Mr. Ali!

I'm happy to have had the chance to see Srengat and meet the locals. From hiking mountains to visiting homes and even attending a wedding, you get to be immersed in the culture. The classes at Mr Ali's house are smaller so you can have a more focused teaching session with fewer students. You will also visit the local school where you'll see full sized classes.
