My experience in Vietnam at Lucy Education Center has definitely been one of the most meaningful travels I’ve had so far. I was able to connect with locals and discover Vietnamese culture. My host family was lovely—I’ve never felt so welcomed anywhere. I’m truly grateful for everything they did for me. Regarding the volunteering work, I mostly prepared PPT at the beginning of my stay, which gave me more free time to travel around and discover Vietnam. Afterwards, I started giving English lessons, and I loved it. Teaching English to children and teenagers felt rewarding and fun

Myself and my boyfriend spent 6 weeks with Clara, Thang, and Lucy. From the get go we were treated as an extension of their family. The food was amazing and the facilities great.

The children were brilliant. All eager to learn, incredibly intelligent and really fun to teach. It has been an honour to have even a small impact in their English journey.

We each taught 13 classes a week, and planned lessons either side, I’d say 3 hours teaching and 2 hours planning for 5 days a week.

It’s hard to put into words how much we will miss Vân Ðiêm, the school, and Clara’s family.

I am so sorry that I did not know that you both are people who love, explore about history, otherwise I would have told you that today, September 2nd, is a huge holiday celebrating the 80th anniversary of Vietnam's independence, so that you both can stay and witness our sacred and heroic moment during the 2 weeks of the celebration. Once again, thank Cam and Myles for making your time at Lucy Education Center magical. We will see you both in the future 😘

I had such a wonderful time at Lucy Education Center. I was treated as if I was part of the family and teaching the kids was so rewarding! They were a bit unruly at times, but they really seemed to want to learn, and I made a lot of good memories here. I feel like I got to grow as a person. Aside from getting the schedules late and a few communication issues, I have nothing but positive words for Lucy Education Center.

From the start everyone was very welcoming to me. Children are mostly very invested in learning new things
Don't be afraid to ask questions if you feel the need, a lot will be very blurry for you and it's normal to wonder.
But if you are someone who is autonomous, who knows how to adapt very quickly want to discover the Vietnamese countryside : this volunteering is made for you! If you need, feel free to send me a message to find out more.

Clara and her family welcomed us warmly, making our experience in Vietnam truly special. It was very different from what we expected, but in the best way. The teaching itself was great; we prepared the lessons and taught engaged students. Clara also helped us plan unforgettable trips to Sapa, Ha Long Bay, and Ninh Binh on our days off. Overall, an unforgettable experience that gave us a unique perspective on Vietnam.
