Ngoai Ngu Tran Tien

We are a volunteer experience that offers a unique blend of being able to help the local people of my town learn English (which in Vietnam is an incredibly useful resource for supporting the future of the people here) and experience what life is like for the local people of Vietnam, away from the larger tourist hotspots. In an environment that is both relaxed and fun!

We have been operating as a school since 2022, however we have only previously accepted volunteers through instagram, which you can find at ''travelers_teach_english4kids''. We are still quite new to Worldpackers, so if you would like to see more about the school I recommend viewing our profile page there! Volunteers at my homestay can expect to be provided 3 meals a day, accomodating all types of diet. Getting to see around my local area during the day and hanging out in the evenings after class, playing games and having a laugh with a couple of drinks too! Classes themselves should be straightforward even for those with no previous teaching experience. We provide lesson plans and learning materials for you!

I stayed with Tien for a little over two weeks, and it was an amazing experience. Tien and his wife made me feel completely at home—they are kind, caring, and welcoming. I also connected really well with the other volunteers. Working with the children was wonderful; they are polite, curious, and the lessons are fun and engaging. I loved learning about a new culture and spending time in such a warm and friendly environment; had so much fun also with the other volunteers. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone wanting to help a community and make a real impact! Thank you so much!! ❤️

My favorite thing about being here has been the warmth and kindness from both Tien's home and the school. If you want a place to help kids that's also relaxed and laid back, this is it! I loved the meals and hanging out together after class. I also made instant friends with the other volunteers I met. It feels like being with family! Unbeatable food, too.

Working with the kids is mostly going over flashcards, pronunciation, and basic conversation so anybody can do it. The kids are rambunctious, loving, sweet, and so smart! Highly recommend, and I hope to come back in the future. <3

I had such a great time in Phan Ri Cua! The host is caring, generous and always making sure everyone feels comfortable and included. Teaching was light and enjoyable, and the children were full of energy and smiles, which made every class rewarding. Outside of that, there was plenty of time to explore the town, taste amazing local food, share meals together and laugh with the other volunteers. The atmosphere was always relaxed, yet full of life and good vibes. This is an experience I will never forget, and I feel truly grateful to have been part of it.

I truly enjoyed my time with Tien, a warm and cheerful host who was always up for a card game. He was very attentive to everyone’s dietary restrictions and full of suggestions for outings together, which made the stay even more enjoyable. The school is wonderful, with excellent facilities, and the children are affectionate, and full of energy. The constant presence of Dana and Owen, kind and supportive teachers, was a real anchor throughout my stay. This experience was enriching on every level, and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to get involved with children in a welcoming

My time at Phan Ri Cua was amazing! Tien and the other staff working there were incredibly welcoming and helping in anything we needed.

Nice schedule working just 3h per day, they tell you what are you gonna teach (no need to prepare anything), some nights with card games, fancy dinner or karaoke and lots of free time... I highly recommend renting a motorbike from Mui Ne to go to the town making sure you have more freedom to move arround (this is the usual transport here, no walking)

I really enjoyed my short time in here!
