Due to several changes in my schedule and problems flying to the country, I ultimately couldn't make it to the place. But during the time I was with the group, I could see how close-knit they were, how well-organized everything was—the schedules, the volunteer outings...everything seemed fantastic. The host is very kind and understanding; he always spoke very highly of me, and I'm very grateful for everything. See you next time!

I stayed at the school for 3 weeks (Nov17-Dec7), I loved my stay here! Teaching English here was easy, I especially enjoyed ChatSpot with adults; the most challenging class for me was K class (kindergarten students). I also learnt ESL games and teaching methods from others. During my 1st week, there were a total of 8 volunteers; and Kaede the staff was very kind to arrange me only classes at 5:30pm or 6pm, so I had the whole day free! I loved walking around Lake Kawaguchiko and exploring Tsuru! I was very lucky to be just in time for both the Maple Leaf Festival and the Tsuru Alps Hiking!

I spend a wonderful month at the school. I really enjoyed volunteering there and going to the kindergarten. Teaching is easy and the kids are absolutly lovely. Every class was a nice time. I miss running after the kids and playing with them. One of my best volunteering memories ! The place we stay at is really spacious. I enjoyed our movie night, the game we played and our dancing night ! There is plenty of hike to do, with a nice view on mont Fuji, to make it perfect ! A big thanks to Kenta, Fumi-san and Kaede for this experience !

First of all, I want to thank Kaede, Fumisan and Kenta for their kindness and hospitality; they truly made me feel at home. If you are looking for a volunteer opportunity where you can contribute your help and also have free time, this is definitely the right place. I really enjoyed teaching the students at the school, and I loved exploring the surroundings while creating a family with the other volunteers. I 100% recommend it! I hope I can come back someday. These two weeks have been incredible!

Amazing team, great accomodation and the cutest children to work with! Couldn't recommend enough - Kaede, Fumi-san and Kenta are so helpful with anything you need, and always putting others first. So kind! Accomodation itself was nice, typical Japanese household, and it helps that it is right above the school so you don't have to travel far at all. They top up the kitchen 3x a week with onions, potatos, hot cake mix, ramen and eggs. Once again, loved my stay here and hopefully can return one day 🥹🫶
