It was an amazing opportunity. Igor was very communicative and accommodating to your needs. The work load was very light and most of your time is spent with exploring the surrounding area (of the city and traveling to nearby nature sights) with the other volunteers. The school is very driven by both the teachers and students to provide the best education and experiences. Hope to see these guys around the world!

My first volunteer experience and I couldn't have asked for a better time. Igor was incredibly welcoming and accommodating, cooking for us whenever he could and helping us organise trips. The teaching was relatively easy and the students were enthusiastic and happy to learn. Overall, I learnt so much from my time there and would defintely return! Thank you Igor!

My first experience and it was incredible! It exceeded every expectation I had. Igor is a kind, sweet man, who will do everything he can to make you comfortable. There were groceries every day, and I particularly enjoyed the nights we cooked together and shared food from our different cultures. Our love of coffee in the morning brought us together, too! Igor took us on incredible trips to see waterfalls and canyons, and planned more activities for us even after we left. The kids were so lovely to teach. I made friends for life and I'll never forget a moment of it ♡ thank you so much, Igor!!
