Cultural exchange: teach us English or French!

Spain

3

Firstly I would like to thank to the Riad Sud Association for receiving us. There's a lot of things to do & children need us for learning in exchange of all the love they can give. But like everything has his dark side. You should know before going that there is no private room and the tours and excursion are not free. There's no problem because Morocco it's not an expensive countrie. Anyway it is an experience that you should not loose. Excepting those little expenses and not having a private room, I would recommend this trip. The host is an incredible person.

It's a great experience for me! People were very nice to me. My host Omar were very kind and took me to his hometown. The scenery there was amazing!Thanks!At first, I thought I was going to teach Chinese or Chinese Painting there. But the students didn't understand what I said in English. Finally, I had to teach them English. It's kind of a challenge for me. But Iconquered it and my students they enjoyed it! There's something I didn't enjoy there :The conditions of the association was not as good as the other volunteers said. No private room, No French class for you, No bike, No laundry room……

Omar and the staff are amazin They are super well-intentioned. They want and will make everything they can to make you feel satisfied and as at home. The hours of work are more than OK, they are just excellent. It was my first volunteering experience and I can tell I will be back for sure!!!! The job they do there in the association with the community is extremely important, is transcendental for them. They are super interested in learning also, they are welcoming and warm. About the facilities they were not luxuryx but one can live there yes. Also the food in town is not expensive.

I loved my time here with Omar and the association :) Everyone was so amazing and so friendly. I loved spending time with the other volunteers and the community, everyone is so lovely. The only downfall is the sleeping and cleaning arrangements. No shower in the building resulting in us going to the hammam every day. Due to sickness I had to leave early which was very hard for me to do and I have promised to return very soon to see everyone again- We miss you all!!! Thank you Omar and the people of the association, we will never forget you xx

My stay in Biougra/Agadir had been the highlight of my Morocco trip. And I can't thank Omar enough for the many wonderful memories I shared with him and the NGO he is supporting. He is by far, the person with the biggest heart. He helps sharpen young minds and motivate them to be the best that they can be. He has taken CS to a deeper level where you can truly appreciate and experience Moroccan culture. I thank you and your lovely family for spending time with me inspite of your busy schedule. And yes, it was the hardest goodbye because I found a home away from home.

The life-changing moment is waiting for you! I was in charge of a class for around 6-10 yo the community, teaching basic Japanese and talking about my experiences about study abroad and world travel. I was a bit nervous before the class because I had no idea how Moroccan the community are like, but it turned out that they were very energetic, curious, and charming. I won't forget that they asked for my signature after class lol: they hadn't talked with foreigners before. In addition, I really enjoyed the homestay! I could get to know the Moroccan culture and their lifestyle. Home-made Tajin was amazing!

The overall trip is great and experience is awosome the people of morocoo the most kind people I have ever met but there (ADVICE) bofere you travel ,All duration you will spend at morocoo the host (Mr. Omar El-edrissi) should be obligated to provide suitable place either with family (better for females)or alone ex. at hotel (do not stay at the community center because it is not well equipped ). Finally ,I would like to thank the families which host us :1- Mr. Ahmed's family ,Mr. Elyazeed's the community Mr. Soliman's family for there hostpitality and reception ,I felt that I was at my home

Todo lo que puedo decir es que ha sido una experiencia inolvidable e increíble! La tarea que se lleva a cabo allí es enorme y solo tengo palabras de agradecimiento por como me han tratado, como si fuera familia. Os lo recomiendo encarecidamente.
