It was a great choice to volunteer with the school and the time I have spent here has been impactful and fun! After traveling for a while it has been great to have a place that feels like home and regular friends to share life with. The students are all amazing and keen to learn whilst also share their culture with you. I believe I have learnt as much as them and feel grateful for their support and attitude. the school is a thoughtful, hard working and very friendly host (friend) who is flexible when working through any issues. It has been a privilege to be part of this experience.

The school was a great experience to meet local people and be immersed in the Vietnamese culture. the school was an excellent host - fun, chill, always willing to learn, competitive (mainly at chess and card games) and very respectful of everyone and anyone that comes in and out of the school. Location of the learning centre was great, with food, entertainment and a shopping centre nearby. What really made my time at the school enjoyable were the people! Both teachers and students were all awesome to get along and hang out with, and great memories were made! I would definitely come back 😊

I had the best time in the school's home! He's the best host, thanks to him, I always felt welcomed. He's passionate host and teacher. Location of English studio is good, located in Go Vap, Hcmc. Takes around 40~50mins by bike to city center like district 1 or 2. And you can get cheap, good food and coffee. Working time is like 1.5 ~ 3hrs a day, 2day offs a week. If you want your weekly schedule, the school'll let you know. Teaching was funny and rewarding. All the students were nice. If you struggle teaching, you can ask the school, he'll help you teaching. Overall, 100% worth trying!!

I really learned a lot from teaching/talking to the students and they from me. I was welcomed hospitably and you can contact the school with all your questions. I had several nice coffee/lunch/dinner dates with the students and I was even taken on a 2-day trip by a student and saw/tasted a part of Vietnam that I would otherwise never have seen. The lessons are 1.5 hours each time in the morning, afternoon or evening and in consultation you do 2 per day. The house/school could be a lot cleaner and tidier but for me it was not a big problem. I would definitely come back if the opportunity arises.

I feel very lucky to have participated in the school project. The students, the other teachers and the school himself are all amazing. I first arrived in a Friday night and was immediately greeted and invited to join the students + teachers gathering, I felt part of the community very quickly. the school and the students are happy to share lunch or dinner with you. The dorms are in the same building as the school itself = no commute expenses. The students vary in age from children to 50+ , their motivation for learning English is different and it is great to learn about their lives.
