Was a super pleasant experience and enjoyable cultural immersion. The food provided was always safe and yummy. The kids were rambunctious, but enjoyable to teach. Miss quynh does charge extra for her loop, but it's fine because it goes towards charity, but if that's not for you, look for a cheaper company to do the loop with.

This experience was truly incredible for me. For two weeks, I felt like part of a beautiful the organization in a lovely town, surrounded by amazing people. Calmness, awareness, and kindness were everywhere. I learned so much from these people and from the way they help others and see the world. Ms. Quỳnh and Ms. Vên took care of me in every sense, and I will always be grateful for that. I truly recommend this adventure and visiting other places in the north as well. There is so much to learn and to contribute in that beautiful country.

I had such a great experience here! Mrs Quynh was so helpful getting me set up and made sure I had everything I needed even though she was away for my first day. The students were so amazing and really wanted to learn, I miss them already. I wish I could have stayed longer and I hope to go back someday. Mrs Quynh even helped me organize by bus when I was leaving and walked me right to the bus stop. I will also miss Mrs Van so much, she was so sweet and always made sure I was okay and had LOTS to eat. Thank you so much for the experience!!

I had an amazing time for my first trip in Vietnam 😊 this is a beautiful place to discover local people and learn about Vietnamese culture. Mes Quynh is very welcoming and kind, it's really easy to feel comfortable in this big house. Also Mrs Von is an exceptional cooker, I ate too much during my stay 😂I really appreciated to share some moments with her when I was trying to learn some stuff in Vietnamese 😁 The teaching part part was pretty chill, I had the opportunity to give some "private" lessons to a young adult, and to a group of adorable children.
