This has been a wonderful experience. The students are absolutely amazing to talk to. The teachers are fantastic people, truly devoted to helping the students learn. I've made great friends with incredible people here. I've had the chance to help the students improve their English and see real progress. Everyone, including Carlos, has been fantastic and extremely helpful with everything I needed. The location is lively and beautiful. I love it here. I truly felt connected to the whole community.

Host created very friendly and welcoming environment so that as I volunteer I felt very comfortable. It helped me to create better learning environment for the students whom I worked with. Carlos (host) did everything what the host promised. If I did not another volunteer work , I would extend my stay another two weeks.

What a wonderful group of people! These friendly folks made sure I was comfortable and had everything I needed and the students and teachers were great to work with. The school itself is situated in a peaceful, safe neighborhood with numerous restaurants nearby. A mall is within walking distance, 1 Km away. The work consists of speaking one on one with students for 4 hours a day Monday through Friday. Since I enjoyed helping the students so much, I actually worked longer than this because I wanted to. The only negative, some evenings people would gather nearby and blast music for a few hr
