Program Details
Our program offers volunteers the opportunity to make a difference by improving English proficiency for the Vietnamese young community while fostering cross-cultural connections. Through interactive teaching sessions and engaging activities, volunteers empower community members to enhance their language skills and broaden their horizons.
But our impact doesn't stop there. By participating in our program, volunteers also contribute to raising funds to support children in underserved areas, providing them with educational resources and opportunities they may not otherwise have.
As volunteers dedicate their time and energy to this meaningful cause, they also embark on a journey of personal growth and skill development. From honing teaching techniques to navigating cultural nuances, volunteers gain invaluable experiences that shape them into global citizens.
