We really enjoyed the teaching program and I think we were able to improve the kid’s English skills a bit. However, it would have been more valuable if we had stayed longer then two weeks.
Nicola Snown
I participated in the teaching govt. School program and found it to be a very valuable experience. It was challenging with the language barrier between me and the children but it was not impossible. My overall experience has been great.
Cees Van Ginneken
Well organized, Friendly relaxed atmosphere. Clear rules and good support. I would recommend this program to my friends. My experience during this program was very rewarding. But when I came here I liked teaching school and Indian food.
Danielle Andreasen
I enjoyed the program and found the experience very rewarding. Although the facilities at the school are basic, the staff and the children themselves are enthusiastic and eager. It’s well run and hopefully will continue to benefit the children and the wider community over time.
