Looking for English speakers! Interact with Korean locals

I volunteered for a month and here's an honest review. The work was easy, the students were lovely, and other volunteers were fun and helpful. But the schedule wasn't fair, some worked 12–16 hours while others did 20. Even with advance notice, days off weren't guaranteed. The AC was freezing in both the academy and apartment. My bed was 1 meter from AC, I got really sick because Scarlett was turning it on every night. I ended up with bronchitis, and had to go to the hospital. The apartment was okay but a bit messy, but 8 people were living there so thats okey. Students and others were amazing.

Hi Anna, thks for joining us I'm replying to this review to ensure ur false information doesn't mislead our future volunteers:) Everyone in our program does the required hours. If u had any doubts about it, u should've asked in our weekly check-up meeting. AC isn't why u got sick, cause it didn' work during the night since it's not managed by us but by the building. Perhaps the constant drinking, smoking, and clubbing was the real reason & even then we changed your schedule so u could recover.

This was such a wonderful experience! It was my first time doing a language exchange, and the 'work' didn't even feel like work because the job is just to have conversations with the students. This is a Worldpackers opportunity I would love to do again. I met so many lovely people, and Bundang is a cute area not too far from Seoul!

Magnificent experience. I was lucky to be surrounded by wonderful people throughout my adventure. The volunteer team is very well managed. The school location is a short walk from the school. And I had the chance to be totally immersed in Korean culture. I leave this place with stars in my eyes

Really great the coliving and accommodation in a fun area with a lot of good food, bars, and easy access to Seoul! So many wonderful students here and I made some good friends among the volunteers. the manager Kay is also really friendly and intentional about fostering a sense of community with the volunteers. The hours are 20/ week as depicted (unless there is a special circumstance like a big event), just note that the hours are 2 to 6 hours/ day rather than 4 hours/ day. Overall I had a good time at this volunteer place, thanks for everything and see you soon!!

Working here was by far one if the best experiences of my life. As someone who initially did not know much about Korean culture, this experience has made me fall in love with the country. I cannot wait to come back! The work is super easy but also engaging. The manager (Cassia) is super flexiable with the schedule and the owners (K) is a very kind man who often took us out for food. I cannot recommend this enough. My only doubt before coming here was the location however that was squashed straight away. The area is really nice with alot to do. Seoul is also very easy to get to with a quick bus

Cassia is a great host. She's always busy but if you need anything she'll help you. The academy is really cozy and it's not far away from the dormitory.

I had a great time in Bundang and can highly recommend this language school. It's a fantastic opportunity for anyone looking to meet locals and practice their English. Everything was well-organized, the working hours were exactly as agreed upon, with a flexible schedule. Interacting with the students was rewarding, and I had some meaningful conversations. Plus, living with the other volunteers in the dorm was so much fun. Overall, it was an amazing experience and a beautiful memory. Thank you!

This was my first volunteering via WorldPackers, but Cassia answered all my questions even remotely before the arrival what made me feel welcome. My stay in the academy was amazing. Every day I could meet a bunch of Koreans who were open and nice. With some of the students, we became really good friends. I had also no issues with any volunteers, everyone is from different countries, so I had a chance to explore another culture apart from Korean as well. We had a lot of fun in the academy, as well as in the dormitory and out of it. I will definitely come back here again
