I had the best time at the language studio. It was my first working holiday, but Harry and MJ were very welcoming from the start and I adapted really quickly! The working hours are respected always and agreed beforehand, the hosts are always open to listen to your needs and adjust the schedule the best they can. The work itself is enjoyable, I met a lot of amazing people! I got very lucky with the group of volunteers, we became really close and I am really grateful for them! The apartment is very small, but everyone is out most of the time, so it is definitely livable. Recommended!

I had an amazing experience here! It was my first Worldpackers trip and I felt very welcomed and comfortable during my stay. Harry and MJ were very friendly hosts who helped create a great experience. I made many friends, both local and with the other volunteers. The job itself required a lot of talking with people so if you aren't social or are introverted it may be difficult to do this job. Otherwise everything else was an incredible experience and would recommend this place for anyone wanting to make lots of friends and explore the heart of Seoul!

From the beginning Harry was super helpful, attentive and kind, my first day in my arrival to Seoul I get lost, but Harry wait and helped everytime when I need it the most. The work is super cool and easy at least from my point of view. I met a lot of wonderful people and I had very good advices and recommendations from them, we shared good conversations, laugh and I really enjoy my time there, MJ and Harry always help you with everything you need and they also make the atmosphere there very nice and cool. The accommodation is enough to stay in Seoul enjoying the experience, my time there was.

I had a great time here! It was such a great experience to talk to local people in this way and I felt super welcomed by the staff as soon as I arrived. Seoul is a really fun city and there is always something to do in your free time. the coliving is a very nice area to stay in with everything you need on your doorstep. The apartment is small but it is what I was expecting and wasn't a problem for me personally. I met amazing people and lived amazing experiences. Thank you so much to Harry, MJ and Jason for having me, I hope to return at some point :) 감사합니다!!!!

The language studio was the perfect place to be for my first worldpackers trip. The managers were welcoming and always had bright energy both in and out of the studio. The accommodation is a little small, but it was a great bonding experience. I'm so sad to leave and hope to visit again in the future.

I had a great time here and ended up staying longer than planned. The apartment is a little small for the number of people staying in it but it's not unbearable as most people are out exploring Seoul during the day anyway. The work is exactly as described and a great way to learn about Korea.

It was a great experience, I met amazing people and the work was a lot of fun, it's a perfect place to share knowledge and learn even more about South Korea. The apartment is a little small, but it's a good place and a good location. I made friends with the other volunteers who made me feel at home. I certainly recommend that experience :)

I had a wonderful time at this language cafe!! The work was really fun. If you like talking to people and you're really curious to learn about Korean life, this is a fantastic opportunity. Come with patience and an open mind to make the most of it! And the staff who run the cafe are great people who I miss already!! The living space is definitely tight, but it's a bonding experience for you and the other volunteers. If you spend most of the day exploring Seoul, it's really not a problem. I hope to be back here soon :)

It was a great experience for me and my desire to know more about local culture in South Korea. It was amazing to be able to have a house, meet people from the whole world, and learn from locals by doing something that is fun… Talk and share experiences. The hosts are beautiful people, always welcoming and doing their best to make you feel at home. I am so thankful for the time I spent combining my passion about traveling with a routine that made me feel part of the community.

We came as a couple and really enjoyed our stay at the Language Studio. It was amazing to get so close and intimate with Korean culture and Koreans. We met people from all walks of life and it has truly left an impact. I would completely recommend this volunteering opportunity to anyone who is interested in understanding Korean culture and getting to know new people.
