Where do I even begin? the eco village Village is truly a special place to be. An and all of the community members are so wonderful, the work is rewarding, and the food is delicious as well. I'd recommend being prepared to teach English to children of all ages and take the initiative to create your own lesson plans/have a little experience teaching if possible. Overall, I couldn't have been happier with my experience, and I am so grateful to the eco village and An. I hope to see you all again!

The eco village Village is truly one of a kind! Each community member greets you with a smile so large it warms your heart. The kids are precious, fun to teach, and will bring so much joy to you! Anh is an incredible teacher/coordinator, always ensuring her volunteers are comfy and happy. There is an abundance of delicious traditional food here! I've learned so much from the beautiful ways/ lifestyle here at the eco village. 10/10 I recommend this stay!

I love the eco village! We met so many wonderful people - they made us feel welcome from day 1. This experience is a mixture of teaching English and helping out in other ways (e.g., I had fun working in the communal kitchen). Totally recommended to other volunteers. One note - I'd recommend preparing some ideas for teaching English in a fun way (we taught a lot of pop song lyrics). Class is less grammar and more getting the kids comfortable speaking. Kids are K-8 and have a range of English knowledge. They have something really special and I'm grateful to have shared in it. Thank you the eco village!

This experience was even better than we could've imagined. From the moment we arrived, we felt so included in the community. We had a chance to participate in many special moments - celebrating the mid-autumn festival, making traditional food, singing and dancing with the kids, and much more. The students are adorable & eager to learn. Though the main goal is teaching English, there are many other opportunities to help out in the village. We'd recommend this experience to all Worldpackers (we came as a couple, but would highly recommend for solo female travelers too.) Thank you the eco village!

Volunteering at the eco village Village will be a memory I will cherish forever. I am so grateful to An, the children and everyone at the eco village Village for welcoming myself and my boyfriend into their wonderful community. We felt so loved and appreciated by everyone we met. Teaching the children was a great experience and we felt fully immersed in their culture the entire time. We even got to experience one of their traditional ceremonies and festivals, something I will never forget. Thank you to everything at the eco village Village, I can't wait to come back one day!

I had to leave early due to unforeseen circumstances at home, however my short time in the village was a very enjoyable experience. I felt very welcomed by An, the kids and other volunteers were all lovely. I would recommend this experience for everyone!

This was definitely one of the best experiences I've ever had while traveling! I have no words to thank you for everything I experienced in these last few days. The incredible reception from everyone at the ecovillage, from beginning to end, all the experiences, smiles, and lessons made me feel like part of the big the eco village family! I'm very happy with this opportunity and for having lived through this in the past few days. I want to come back soon and already miss everyone!

It was my first Worldpackers experience and I geniunely couldn't have asked for more. The people in the village are extremely welcoming, fully embracing you as part of the community. There's also a lot of free time in-between and after classes, when you can work, read books or play sports with kids. Thank you, An, for letting me be a part of such an unforgettable experience!

This was the best thing I've ever done. Miss An is the most amazing, hard-working individual I have ever met. The entire village made us feel extremely welcomed and loved. We learnt so much about the village and their traditional way of life. The children are so amazing, I will never forget them. The teaching was tricky at times, but SO rewarding. We had never taught a class before and we ended up doing well. Seeing the kids progress in their language skills was the best. We did so much more than teach, An and the kids did lots of activities with us. the eco village village has my heart. Thank you!
