The Experience

Help Koreans practice their English by discussing interesting topics and sharing new ideas! It is less than 18 hours per week. 1 to 3 Koreans per group for less than 4 hours per day, with a 10-minute break in between. It could be very boring to talk to the same person or people for 4 hours straight, so we always rotate to meet new people. We'd like you to try to help them communicate and practise English with them.

The experience was overall really good! Oscar is a great and fun host. I met some great people, and the work itself was really easy and enjoyable. It was definitely worth it. I think other have mentioned that the bed situation isn't the best but not a deal breaker for me.

The volunteering doesn't even feel like work: you get to chat with the locals and they're so funny and nice to talk to! Everyone is super friendly. 🫶🏼 The accommodation is in a great location, in a lovely area of the host full of restaurants and cafés and it's really easy to get to Seoul by subway. Oscar is the nicest and coolest person! I have a knee injury and asked if I could extend my stay and he was fine with it. Thank you so much Oscar!🙏🏻 I totally recommend this place to everyone and I'll definitely come back 😊

I had fun at the Cafè, Oscar is a nice guy and the work isn't hard, it's just a couple of hours per day. The accomodation is in a very good position and it's very close to the subway station so it's also easy to get to Seoul, but the beds could be better, there were people sleeping on the floor. Overall I would recommend this experience.

I really enjoyed volunteering at the Language Studio the host. I met a lot of wonderful people there and also the “job” is not hard to do. Also Oscar and the students and people going to the Language Studio to practice their english were all so nice and kind!! (And yeah… I think everyone knows about the bed-situation… ) So overall it was very fun and great experience and I really would have liked to stay longer… :(

Oscar was a great boss and the team was a pleasure to work with. If you like talking to locals, work itself never feels like it. That is the whole point, you are engaging with locals to talk with them about anything you want. Quite interesting, fun and engaging work! Would recommend to anyone. Only negative would be the bedding can be a little bit tight but if you've ever lived in a hostel before this is nothing new. Overall accomodation was good
