The Experience

We are looking for volunteers to speak English with our students. We are in Hong Ngu Town, Dong Thap Province. We have the sweetest children that are so interested to learning English from foreigners. Please come to visit our center. We opened this English Center to help children who don't have a lot of money. We rarely have many chances to speak english with foreigners. We have no foreigners in this town.

This was an amazing experience! Ty is so kind and he gets along amazingly with the students and local community. The kids are smart and well behaved. They are anywhere from 6-18 and have different levels of English comprehension, which is great for practicing your communication skills. The food was amazing, and the town has multiple coffee shops to visit in your free time. You can expect to teach for a few hours in the morning, with a lunch and rest break, maybe 1-1.5 hours in the afternoon (not every day), and 2 hours in the evening. Accommodations were modest, but overall great experience.

It was a great experience to volunteer in Ty's center. I stayed 6 weeks there and I started to feel like a part of the community. The students are so interesting and interested in learning English so it is nice to teach them. Ty is always here to help you with everything and provides the best food in the city ! It's a peaceful place to stay with some nice gyms and coffee shops. The only thing is that you don't have two days off per week as mentioned on the website but it was ok for me. I would recommend the school to anyone who wants to have an enriching experience.

What an amazing 2 weeks in Hong Ngu, i've never felt so appreciated and loved for purely speaking english. The children are the sweetest and so enthusiastic just to be able to talk to a foreigner. Ty is also brilliant, providing great food, regular football and lots of information. The living space is very basic but it's got all i needed and felt very very safe. Thanks for everything Ty, i've made a lifelong memory. Until next time :)

I was welcomed very hospitably by Ty. The working hours are around 30 hours instead of 18 hours. Also no day off if you only come for 2 weeks. On Sunday it is only in the morning and you are free the rest of the day. The other days it is 2 or sometimes even 3 times a day. But you get a lot in return. 3 delicious meals a day. A minibus from HCMC and back. You have your own bedroom and air conditioning. Only no bed, but a mattress, and I thought that was fine. And you teach children who really want to learn English and are super sweet. The people in the city are realy friendly. Good experience!!
