Great volunteering experience! Kind and communicative volunteer coordinators, also extremely helpful with any unexpected changes during the experience. The kids were active and eager to learn English, which was wonderful for learning process!

Note: Knowledge of Spanish contributes to easier communication with the team.

Thanks and good luck!

I loved teaching the kids!
There were some issues with the accommodation (no water etc) but it got switched for a bigger place half way through my stay which solved most issues. At times the organization and communication was difficult. I would recommend having an intermediate or at least beginner level of Spanish prior to arriving as the majority of the teachers at the preschool do not speak English, and Spanish is also very very helpful when teaching English to the children who are generally beginners.
Bogotá is chilly at night so make sure to have warm pyjamas and panta instead of shorts

I liked the work & the school is great. Sadly is that I didn’t
feel respected neither that me & my feelings were taken seriously. The basic communication felt really hard. I was really understanding all the time (no heating, only cold water, slow WiFi, no water at all). We had to move the apartment and it was still under construction and the air was toxic. I texted the person who is responsible and she answered that I may leave if I don’t like it and that I’m always complaining. I asked/complained about the basics and felt disrespected by such an attitude of the host.

Bogotá homes don’t have heating as it’s not needed for the climate. A citywide water cut affected our area, so we moved accommodations to improve your stay. The new place was not under construction—just a new door being installed—and the air was not toxic. Our Wi-Fi is high-speed, the top plan from ETB. You raised new complaints daily, and we did our best to assist you each time. We’re sorry you were still unhappy. We wish you the best and thank you for joining us.

Although my time at CMPS was short it was great!
Host was very communicative, the children are adorable :).
The schedule from Monday-Friday included helping out at the school from 8-12pm. In the mornings I was tasked with doing group classes and going over topics given by the teachers of each class.
After our snack at around 9 am I’d usually start doing “personal” classes which was with 2-3 kids at a time reviewing a topic given by their teacher.
At 12 we are served lunch, then the day is done!
My only complaint is the shower in the apartment, the pressure is very weak and it’s cold!!

My experience at CMPS was a positive one. You get the opportunity to help teach at the preschool on a fundamental level and immerse yourself in the small neighbourhood it’s situated in. It would be ideal to have beginners Spanish as the teachers speak minimal English and it’s difficult to communicate with them and the students without any Spanish.
The classes were sometimes a little hectic so it’s good to be adaptable and to learn what resources you have available to use so you can be prepared.
