The Experience

We are a non-profit English center in Hanoi which is opened to help mostly children as well as students. We have been doing this for many years, until now it has been 4 - 5 years since we started, we did not have many helps from the volunteers because there are not volunteers here in Hanoi, Vietnam . So we hope that we can find some volunteers who is willing to help us with this.

It was definitely the most local volunteer work I have ever experienced. We did mostly online lessons and not busy. the home and staffs help to you if you need anything. You can eat local dishes prepared by the home. I will miss you the home, the home's husband, Sofia and local staffs 🫶 I hope I will be back again 🍀

If you had a great passion about teaching and education, I highly recommend this place to you. Prepare yourself, know what to bring on the table and everything will be fine. I have everything in my control (clean room with balcony and a sharing clean bathroom). the home's assistant cooked & prepared three different meals every day; Breakfast at 8 AM, Lunch at 1:00 to 1.30 PM and Dinner around 7-8 PM. I teach in small groups of children and one adult everyday on weekdays. the home and her staffs are very helpfull. I only stay for 1 month, I would love to come back here if she need me. Thank you the home.

It was my first workaway experience and I loved it! I'm so grateful. I teached adults and kids in small groups. I wasn't overwhelmed and English is not my first language. I got to interact with the socials in every way! I would totally recommend this! Thank you <3

This experience was challenging. Poor communication, room and shared Spaces were very dirty ( no one cleaned up in my 2 weeks stay). No one from the staff spoke a word in english so we did not connect even though i was eating with them. the home helped me when I was sick but apart from that we didnt communicate ( poor understanding and maybe not interested). Her fruit shop employees broke Into my room several times without asking, and stole my stuff. On the good side the kids were adorable and I miss thzm
