I had a beautiful experience volunteering at the school, and I really recommend it to other travelers. I stayed with amazing young people, shared the same space, joined activities, and learned from them while having fun. The place feels super local — no tourists around, just a genuine community, which made the experience even more special. Everyone was kind and treated me so well. If you're looking for a meaningful volunteer opportunity where you can connect, learn, and contribute, this is a great choice!

My time at the school has been fun and I met amazingly kind people. They take super good care of you, providing you a private room, 3 meals a day, and laundry service. You work 6 days a week, teaching 2-4 classes or either children, teens, or adults. You also may be asked to create video content with them. Regarding the “trips around Jakarta”, I would have low expectations. I'm sure if you have a destination in mind where you'd like to go, they will happily accompany you, but you should take that decision on yourself. Overall, it's a great experience and I will miss everyone there!

I had a great time at the school! I can't recommend this experience enough to someone who is looking to teach english and dive into the indonesian local lifestyle. Both staff and students are super friendly and will help you along the experience. The schedule consists of teaching 6 days a week and 2-3 classes each day. You will get to teach in different schools but mostly the one located next to your accommodation. During my stay, I got the chance to visit the Istiqlal mosk, practice some Batik art and go to Pari island. Thanks again for the experience and hopes everyone is well !

My time here was amazing. The staff and teachers were really helpful, and you can always ask someone. You get to teach students of all ages, so you get to know the locals. I got really close to the students I lived with, and leaving is now harder than I thought it would be. I often had free time when the students had classes, but this time can be used for lesson planning, relaxing or calling home. I also got to see different parts of Jakarta, and some tourist places. The food is great, and they listen to your request. Also, a special thanks to Ocho for the secret coffee stash.

I had a really great experience at the school! They are trying really hard to ensure that you are comfortable and if you have any questions you can always reach out to someone. The work was great fun for me. I really enjoyed interacting with the students of all ages, and it was really great to be able to learn so much about Indonesian culture! I was able to have really nice evenings with the students who slept in the same house and I'll miss them dearly. All the students were always very respectful and curious, it was great fun. Special shoutout to Ocho, Agil and Aisha!
