Program Reviews

TravelGrad have been amazing all throughout the whole process of moving to Vietnam and continue to support me now 3 months in, they are the most trustworthy company you will find! Vietnam itself is a great place to come as the teaching is very fun but relaxed which allows you to have a good social life with plenty of time to explore all around Vietnam as well as gain the valuable experience of teaching. The cost of living here is very low so you can live very comfortably and have a very good social life.

Helloooo from sunny Australia, February 7th 2022! My name is Alex. I’ve come to Australia through TravelGrad and can honestly say that so far, it has been the best experience of my life! It has been so much less worrying that I thought it would be, everything has fallen into place, likely due to the amount of help and guidance we’ve been given from TravelGrad. Andrew and the team at TravelGrad squashed all my fears pre-departure due to the sheer amount of guidance and knowledge they have about the country. The arrival was flawless, so smooth, a transfer from the airport to the hostel, where we had a week long induction with tours and activities. Most importantly we were in a big group of 20-30 people, which really is the foundation for the best year ahead! The week of activities was very varied, and included chilled parts, beach walks, as well as nights out in bars and clubs, and an overnight coach ride 2 hours out of Sydney to do sand boarding and hiking. It was the most varied and incredible week of my life! As well as all the social stuff, we also had our bank accounts, sim cards and tax numbers set up in order to start working! Everything was basically put in place for me to start enjoying my year of work and travel ahead. The team also advised on the best routes to take to move around the country, as well as long term accommodation advice etc. I could not recommend this opportunity anymore. I am blown away by how good this whole experience is, and by how much Im enjoying it. You have incredible weather, wildlife, food, surfing, City vibes, life by the beach, rainforests, coastal road trips - this place literally has everything! Anybody feeling apprehensive about it, my advise would be just go for it! Talk to TravelGrad or feel free to follow or contact me on InstaGram (hajialexandroz) with any questions about it all. See you all in Australia!

I had a fantastic experience with Andrew from TravelGrad. I applied while at university and travelgrad organized the application of my visa and found a job for me. I signed a contract directly with the school and didn't have to pay any further fees or commission.

The support was excellent and Andrew went above and beyond to support myself and the other applicants. The job that I got through his company was well paid and a great place to work. TravelGrad have remained in contact with me and are always willing to help with any problems I have. I couldn't be happier with the service provided by Andrew.

No much to say, because it'd be too much to say! It was simply one of the best experiences of my life! The only negative part of it, was not being able to go back! 😢 ❤️
Being a teacher in China taught me so much on so many levels! It opened my eyes and made me fall in love with this incredible Country, which is very often misunderstood and underrated.

I surely loved every minute of it. Overall It was fun, educating and enriching!
It's a lifechanging experience that I'd definetely recommend to anyone!

Going to China has definitely been one of the best decisions I've ever made! I've made amazing friends and travelled to lots of beautiful places inside and outside of the country. Destinations in Asia are easily accessible and cheap, and you can save a lot with accommodation and food usually paid for in schools. People are friendly and helpful, and it's really easy to get around. Travelgrad made the application process super easy and offered support even while I was in China. I'd definitely recommend!

Travel Grad have helped me journey to the other side of the world and helped me achieve exactly what I wanted. Even after the 2020 pandemic struck and caused a delay in my application , Travel Grad continued to support me throughout and ensured I would be able to travel when it was safe and when it worked best for me. I never felt rushed in my application and always felt like so could tell Travel Grad any issues I had. They were always understanding, patient, and kind throughout my entire application. They are an excellent team and I’m very grateful for their help.

I came to China with TravelGrad, and the experience has been great. From signing on, Andrew and the company assisted me with all of my visa supporting documentation, and so I didn’t have to worry about organising it all myself. Following my orientation in Beijing, Travelgrad placed me at a school in Foshan, Guangdong. My experience here has been excellent. While I have been working hard, I’ve also been able to travel a lot of China and also neighbouring Southeast Asia. I’d recommend this to anyone seeking a bit of adventure in their lives and wanting to break away from life in the U.K.. It is not only a gap year option, but can also be the start of a career as further opportunities will pop up down the line. If you’re curious, drop them a message because Andrew and the team are more than happy to have a chat and answer any questions. You won’t regret it!

I used Travel Grad back in 2021 during a tough covid time, especially getting into China. Although Travel Grad and Andrew made the experience as easy as it could be. The company were there to help every step of the way and are still there to provide support for us now. I would highly recommend using travel grad wither its to come to China, Korea, Thailand, Australia or any new ventures they have available. Excellent set up that made our experience traveling and living in China an unforgettable experience!!

Travel Grad have been super helpful throughout the whole process of applying and moving out to Thailand. Including replying to messages at all hours of the day and night. I had a phone call with Andrew at the start who talked through all the different options and what to expect. Two days later I had signed on to move out to Thailand and I haven't looked back. It was the best decision I've made! The process before moving was made fairly stress free and once you are out here there is so much opportunity to travel and meet lots of people doing the same sort of thing as you. I have been here two and half months so far and its absolutely flown by!

TravelGrad was a great help from the start, as soon as I spoke to them they put me at ease about the entire process. They were a massive help with sorting visas and paperwork and are always available to contact. I didn’t encounter any problems and have now been in Thailand for two months and I am still having a great time. If you sign up to teach abroad with TravelGrad I’m sure you’ll have a great experience.
