I stayed at thethe the school for a month, and it was a wonderful experience. The school is big, with many children eager to learn, play, and dance, they are amazing! Juliana and Mr. Baraka are incredibly kind and always ready to organize any activity, clarify any doubts, and dedicate all their time and energy to the project. For volunteers, it is an incredible experience—the food is delicious and plentiful, and the rooms are clean. I highly recommend this place; you won't regret anything!

The only regret I have concerning this place is having to leave it. My experience at the schoolSchool exceeded all expectations I had - if you are looking for adventure, fulfilment and love, this is the place for you! The school is in a beautiful and culturally-rich location, and as a volunteer you feel extremely cared for, almost as if the place operates on a currency of love. The children are well-raised, intelligent, passionate and extremely supportive of each other...and so cute! They are a credit to the owners, who are the most generous and hardworking people. Asante sana <3

The kids were the best part about this experience. They are eager to learn, are very fun to spend time with. Flexibility is definitely important, as school schedules can occasionally change on short notice. If you're open-minded, creative, and full of ideas, you'll find a lot of room for initiative and personal input it will be appreciated. However, it's important to be aware that the experience currently lacks some basic structure. Clear work schedules are missing, and there is no designated person to guide or welcome new volunteers. It can leave you feeling a bit on your own.

I stayed almost 4 weeks atthe the school and had the best time ever. The work is great, you have many options to do so you can choose whichever fits you. I chose to teach in middle class together with an amazing teacher and some other volunteers. The kids are amazing and full of energy and love. Both the staff and Juliana & Baraka are welcoming people, making all the volunteers feel at home. I would recommend this experience to everyone who wants to contribute to a beautiful school and good cause. Next to that, I learned a lot from the local culture,visiting masaai villages😊💙

I had a wonderful time atthe the school. There is a wide variety of tasks you can choose from, allowing you to select what you want to do. After the volunteer work and during weekends, there was plenty of opportunity to explore the culture and engage in other activities. I am grateful for the three weeks I was able to spend here!

This experience has genuinely changed my life and is one of the best. I would recommend to anyone. It truly feels like family here and you are welcome the second you arrive. The kids are amazing and show you so much love. The teachers are really easy to work and collaborate with! Whatever skills you are best at you can share with others! There is also opportunity to do safaris and other trips such as hikes. The food is also amazing which is an added bonus and is suitable for all dietary requirements. Lydia, the volunteer coordinator is especially amazing. I am so grateful! I will be back!

In BEMS you feel very welcome since the very first day. It's definitely an opportunity to know firsthand the Tanzanian culture, including Maasai traditions, and their way of living. There's always work to do and both teachers and children appreciate every little action you make. Moreover, they help you to go on safari, hiking in a volcano, visiting the Maasai market and some villages, collaborating in workshops... Very complete! I hope you enjoy your time there🤗✨
