My experience at the school was amazing! I would do it all over again and highly recommend it. Clara and her family will welcome you with open arms and always help you feel at home. Besides regular lessons, the school organizes many activities, so there's never a dull moment! The students will warm your heart, and the manageable workload leaves time to explore authentic Vietnamese life and amazing places. A bicycle is available for you to go around and the center is a one hour bus ride away. I met wonderful people and made unforgettable memories. I only wish I could stay longer!♥

This was such a lovely and memorable experience! Clara is genuinely one of the kindest hosts I've ever met, always going above and beyond to help. Her family was so welcoming, and I got to experience authentic local life without anything sugarcoated. For teachers looking to refresh their skills or anyone wanting hands on teaching experience, this place is perfect. Even though it's a little far from downtown, Clara always made sure I was comfortable and gave me rides to the bus station. Thank you, Clara, from the bottom of my heart 🩵💙

Thank you so much for your beautiful words! ❤️ It truly means a lot to us. Having you at Lucy Education Center was such a special experience for us too. You became a lovely part of our Lucy family, and I’m so grateful for everything you shared with our students and with us.

You’ll always have a home and a family here in Vietnam. I really hope we’ll meet again someday! Take care and keep shining! 💙

This was my first volunteering experience through Worldpackers, and I'm truly grateful for this opportunity. Clara and her family welcomed me with so much support, kindness, and care. Clara helped me a lot throughout my stay, and I honestly don't know how to repay her kindness. She will always be remembered as one of the kindest and most wonderful people I've ever met. Thank you for guiding me and showing me how to become a competent teacher, which is something I truly needed as I work towards building my future career in teaching. Cảm ơn! ❤️

I just left the school I stayed there 5 weeks, arriving during Tet It was an amazing experience, I could not feel more local experience than this It was facilitated by Clara and her family who are really welcoming I had the chance to be able to be extremely independent which was perfect for me during that time. The school is in the countryside, you can take a bycicle to wander around, go to a cafe to the village nearby and focus on your projects and relax Clara is really understanding of situations and always tries to make everything well for everyone. I wish to come back !!

One of the best experience of my life. I spent one month at Clara's house and I felt at home and part of something beatiful. I teached english to kids and adults and it's been wonderful to be able to partecipate in their learning journey. Clara and her family made me feel comfortable and they always suggest me new stuff to try or new experiences to do. I recommend the host to everyone who want to explore and be inspired. And for sure I will be back in Vietnam thanks to this amazing experience. I will be forever grateful for this period of my life.
