So much fun, was definitely intimidating at first but easy to get the hang of. Phuong was super understanding and accommodating for any needs we had, and let us have time off whenever we wanted. Definitely recommend

This was my first experience as a volunteer, and it was absolutely incredible. Phuong and his team were always helpful, and I felt truly welcomed and supported throughout. Definitely an experience I would highly recommend!

My experience at the host was absolutely incredible! Phuong and Zé are fantastic hosts, always ready to help with anything you need. This was a completely new experience for me—my first time traveling with Worldpackers and my first time teaching kids—and it was truly unforgettable. The only thing to note is that the workload is usually more than the advertised 10 hours, often reaching up to 25 hours per week. If you're working remotely, I suggest discussing your availability with them in advance—they are very understanding and will do their best to accommodate your schedule. loved it!

Hi Joice! Thank you so much for the kind words! Just want to make something clear for future readers of your review, you typed 25 instead of 15:) So yes, on average is about 15 hours a week, but this can vary depending on the number of volunteers, and full time teachers available. Some weeks the volunteers can only work 10 hours and have 3 or more days off. Some weeks, we might need some extra help and it can be around 18h per week, however, when this happens, the following week we compensate it

Welcoming and kind host. We learned a lot about the Vietnamese culture which was amazing. The children were cute and friendly. All in all, we had 3 exciting weeks with the host and his family.

My experience here was unbelievable, since we were in the airport because they drive to us and show us everything about the house where live teachers, about the local food and everything was organize and clear. They were more than incredible I love all experience here.

I only have words of gratitude with the team at Athenas the host I really liked the experience. They are very friendly and kind. They made me feel at home from the first moment. They celebrated my birthday and bought me a cake ❤️ Phong taught me how to ride a motorcycle. His wife Thanh is very friendly and cooks very tasty The house is very nice and comfortable. I had a private room. The first days I observed classes from other English teachers. Phong assisted me in some classes and then I taught on my own. You always have someone to answer your questions I highly recommend it!

I had a good stay in the host, all people was amazing and you feel like with your family. I recommend to volunteer with them, you definitely are going to learn techniques to teach kids and also you are going to be involve in the culture. Thanks for all Jose and Fang. You were amazing.

This has been one of the best experiences ever, I've made lifelong friends within the team and the leaders José and Phong are absolutely incredible, sometimes we'd all go out to eat together. While the schedule could occasionally get a bit chaotic, all it ever took was a conversation with them to work out a solution. They genuinely listen to your needs and made me feel at home from the very first moment. Classes were amazing and the kids absolutely adorable. I would come back in a heartbeat, this experience has been amazing from beginning to end and I'll cherish every moment of it :,)
