I felt really well from the beginning of my stay. Everyone is so nice and friendly, from the students to the teachers. I tried to teach the students what I could, and learned so much from everybody, from the local culture, language and history to the ideals and mindset of the people. Also got advises for visit the country and the regions around. I'm really glad with all the time I spent at the school, and the friendships we developed. I strongly recommend this project to those who look for a deepened social experience. Thank you all for everything, and see you next time :)

My experience teaching Spanish at the school was incredible. The children are sweet, eager to learn, and curious about the world and other cultures. All the people who work and live there treated me fantastically; they made me feel like family. I learned a lot while I was here. I'll never forget them. I'll be back soon. I'll always hold them in my heart. Thank you all! 🩷✨

My experience might not represent the future because the school is going through several infrastructure changes. It was really nice, the kids are awesome and the teachers heartwarming. It depends mostly on your self motivation, because there is no one telling you what to do, you have to be constantly asking which classes are free and well, be ready to improvise. Living in the school is so fun and enriching but even though I thought I was strong enough there were some serious hygiene and social issues that kept me from enjoying a 100% It's a great opportunity to learn and share :)

This was my first volunteering experience and it has set the greatest impression. I was here for 6 weeks teaching English to all ages which in turn allowed me to develop a variety of communication techniques. The children at the school are all so lovely and engaging outside of lesson too. Those who stay over at the hostel, it felt like a family and they were very welcoming. We often played games on an evening together. The food that was provided by the school was delicious and the accommodation was cozy. I thoroughly enjoyed my whole time spent here. I would recommend to all!
