When I made it to Oxford David provided everything thing as the accommodations says. I was able to get around with his bicycle to see the city center of Oxford. Dave also took me for a walk at Christ Church Meadow, very nice of him. He also served me desserts of yogurt with pears from his tree. I would definitely come back again. Oh don't forget to bring some chocolate!

It was my first volunteering experience at WP and I chose the right place since Dave made me feel at home. In the beginning, it was challenging because you have to observe, learn and become familiar with things and tasks, so once you adapt you do the best job as a volunteer and the host is satisfied and happy with your work. I am very grateful to Dave for his support these 2 weeks that I stayed. Weekends were off, and because the location of this place is very close to Oxford city centre you can easily walk or ride highly recommend this experience if you want to enhance your English. Cheers!

Definitely, I recommend this volunteering. In the beginning, Dave looked pretty structured, but after I understood, everything was so sorted it was easier for myself. The job is simple and the place is lovely. Also, he tried to help me with everything. I'm very grateful Dave! Nice to meet you!

First of all, Thank for everything. I really appriciate your kindness. I did some work such as cleaning and gardening about 4 hours per day except weekends. He gave me good coffee and tea and meal everyday. It was first time homestay another country with different national people. It was such a nice decision to stay there. I had totally new experience also improve my English. He taught me a lot of things for help my English and for my future. He gave me free time on Weekend, so I discovered Oxford on Weekend.

During this experience I had the opportunity to learn many things,lessons and concepts that will be useful to me for the rest of my life, as well as having improved my knowledge of the English language. Dave is a person with a lot of experience and interesting stories to tell, as well as being very helpful, understanding and flexible when it comes to working. I didn't have any problem with food and accommodation and since there will probably be other guests in your same house, you may be lucky enough to make friends in order to be able to experience the nightlife that Oxford can offer.

Great stay with Dave in Oxford. The thing that I loved the most was the meals that Dave made -especially DDD (Dave's Delicious Deserts) It was a very useful time as Dave is nearly always at home and I can directly ask questions for my English and learn different jobs in his home/garden, I like the ambience in Dave house -quiet and peaceful and my life here was free and easy -I could follow whatever kind of interest I wanted eg walking or chatting to friends or reading. Dave also did his best to help me with nearly everything - understand my problems, helping me with travel, he's a good man

I am not going to write the same beautiful things that you can read in other reviews because it makes no sense but I'm sure they are true. I have to say I feel that my English has improved considerably in three weeks there. I read some stories from a book loudly with him and it helped to have a better vocabulary, reading and especially speaking. There were some misunderstandings between us because of our personality and I had to come back before expected but apart from that I can confirm that he is always willing to help you and tries to do his best with the helpers.

That's something I'll definitely miss :( haha You will also have the best conversation with him, he's a really wise man I'm definitely looking forward to go back to oxford as soon as I can It's been a real pleasure Thank you Dave
