Amazing experience with Gotoco

I have just finished a 7-week program with Gotoco in Thailand. This fully-funded cultural exchange and teaching placement is definitely worth it. The program started with an orientation week in the coastal city of Hua Hin, where accommodation and a stipend for food were provided, as well as a range of fun cultural activities such as Muay Thai, language lessons and a Thai cooking class. After this, I was able to teach English in an international language centre in Bangkok for 5 weeks before returning to Hua Hin to provide an English lesson for Buddhist Monks as well as an afternoon of learning-based games with local Thai schoolchildren. I think Gotoco is a great program for young people looking to travel, gain career opportunities and get experience teaching abroad. It also helps you to meet lots of new people and do things outside of your comfort zone.
