The Experience
We’re looking for a caring and responsible person to look after our cat while also helping a bit around the house — small tasks like wiping surfaces, doing some cleaning, vacuuming, or keeping the kitchen and bathroom tidy. The apartment is small (two rooms), so there’s not that much to do. Depending on the exact dates of your stay, you may also be able to support our NGO, that works with children from migrant families.

Alex and all the teachers at the school are simply amazing. They put love and care into every single activity, and they made sure that I always felt at home and welcomed despite the language barrier. I was taken on as a graphic designer, but I also helped with a wide range of different tasks, from creating content to painting, and it was really inspiring and fun for me. At the moment, the accommodation isn't ideal, since it is 40 minutes away from the kids' center in Hannover. However I can only thank everyone for letting me live this short but lovely experience.

I had a great time volunteering at the school! Alexandra and Dana were really welcoming and always made sure I had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. At the school, I supported a wide array of tasks from after-school care and cooking with the children, to parent handoff and end-of-day clean-up. I also got to assist with the Music Camp over the holidays, which was a great way to immerse myself in the teaching profession and learn from local staff. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone looking to get a hands-on experience of the field and grow their Russian vocabulary.

My experience was short but I really enjoyed it! Alex and Dana are super nice, I was able to work in my field and exchange ideas with other people. The workflow was very smooth, and you have a lot of autonomy while working. I wish I had gotten to know more about the school environment and the classes, but it was the school vacations. You are amazing, and the project is beautiful!

Although Alex was out-of-town working during most of my stay, she still sent me clear instructions everyday on what to do. Some of the things I did was make a sensory board for the kids, bike around town delivering fliers to businesses, and use the public transportation to go put posters throughout the city. This helped me explore a lot of Hannover which is a beautiful place! Just be prepared to spend a lot of the days working by yourself. Dana is really nice, and a great cook! I also loved playing with Mr. Cat :) and already miss him. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to volunteer at MK!

It was a great pleasure to take part in the school daily life! My tasks included promoting bilingual school with posters across the city, which helped a lot in exploring the town, helping with cleaning and some school preparation processes, and most valuable - taking part in the organization of the event for children. It was a diverse and educational experience and I am grateful for the opportunity to explore the non-profit school system and meet many great people. Alexandra and Dana were extremely welcoming and really nice, Dana's cooking was just amazing and I had a great time overall!
