3 amazing weeks

I did 3 programs in total. 2 weeks in Poland and 1 week in Czech Republic.
It was such a nice experience. Having sessions 1 on 1 with the participants were always interesting and usually fun. The program is well structured and it's quite easy to help the participants gain confidence in speaking english as second language. We got to discover new people from different cultures and it was nice to have social times after our day in the evening. It's nice and rewarding to be a mentor, to help and to see your mentee progressing and doing his presentation at the end of the week. For us, native speakers, it's awesome to visit different venues in different European countries and in the meantime helping people in their quest. I really enjoyed the experience and really hope I can go back next year.

What would you improve about this program?
After a whole week people get to know each other and get closer. There is always a time where we exchange adresses. There should be a period for email exchanges and photos time cause nowadays everybody likes to take photos. Also in the Czech program there was no exercise of pronunciation and I think it was missing. We did it 2 weeks in Poland and that exercise is really helping them, it should be in the Czech programs too.

Met lots of great people

Angloville was really fun, and u met lots of cool people. Downsides where that they don't seem to screen people very well, and there were some strange people (both volunteers and participants). Overall though it was really fun, and I would definitely do it again in a different country. A great way to learn about the culture! Not a fan that they force you to write a review in order to get your refund back. Or that there is a minimum of seven hundred and fifty characters needed in the review, since I have already said everything that I want to say. But still, happy that I did it. I would recommend getting WhatsApp before you come to Europe. Everyone uses it here. And you can easily get a SIM card, which has no roaming charges in all of the EU.

What was the most unfamiliar thing you ate?
The food was really good. Poland has a lot of good soups.

Best experience of my life !

Me and my boyfriend spent 3 weeks in Angloville this may. Gdansk, Poland - Wroclaw, Poland - Brno, Czech Republic. We met so many AMAZING people, native speakers and polish or Czech participants. They are now friends for life. Yes the days are long in Angloville but really funny and you have a lot of pauses to rest. The food and accomodation are provided for free and are perfect. You speak english with the participants to help them improve their confidence. You see the evolution of the participants english rise over the week. It is truely a magical experience ! I recommend Angloville to everyone who likes to meet new people and travel for really cheap ! Thanks for the amazing experience i'll be back for sure ! I made so many new friends for life !

What would you improve about this program?
I would not ask native speakers to choose their accomodation between the venues in advence. Let them go with the flow. Of our 3 weeks, we stepped in with participants to go to the next city and had to cancel all our premade plans. It cost us a lot to change plans. We had to book hôtels or Airbnbs 4 months in advance without knowing where the meeting point was ...

I recommend the Anglo-TEFL Scholarship with Angloville

I participated in three Poland-based Angloville programmes in order to fulfil the requirements of the Anglo-TEFL scholarship. Combined with an online 120-hour Advanced TEFL Course, this experience has proved invaluable for someone like myself, who is interested in pursuing TEFL-related job roles in the future and is therefore currently interested in voluntary situations that primarily involve English language practice with and teaching of adults and/or youth.

I, along with other Native English Speaker volunteers, provided one-to-one and group conversational practice and activities for professional adults.

I really enjoyed meeting, working with, assisting and befriending people from a wide variety of professional and cultural backgrounds, broadening my personal perspective whilst gaining practical and theoretical knowledge/experience that will benefit me in my future job search.

Unforgettable Experience!

I absolutely loved the Angloville program in Hungary. It was an awesome experience with unforgettable memories. It was exciting from the very first day and only got better the more everyone got to know each other. There were jokes and laughs as well as the serious business of "teaching" English. By teaching I mean having great conversations with professionals who were able to share their countries' way of doing things which is exactly what I wanted out of the program. I learnt so much about Hungarian culture and have left with so many good friends in Hungary!
I would definitely recommend anyone who wants to visit Hungary or any of the other locations to apply, as you will learn a lot more about the culture than if you are just a tourist in a big city. You will get as much out of the program as you put in, and being involved in almost every activity made it such a rich experience for me.

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
Get involved! This program was amazing and I took every opportunity to be as involved as possible which made it such a rich experience. I learnt so much about Hungary and made some awesome friends in the process.

Expectations Exceeded!

I spent three weeks in a row on programs in Czech Republic and Poland. I had so much fun, it did not seem like work most of the time, although the days were long. I really enjoyed chatting with the participants who taught me as much as I taught them! I love the concept Angloville has of improving confidence rather than nitpicking on grammar and so on. Some participants had come back after doing the program before so that shows their appreciation for the methods used. I have the same philosophy of teaching in my classroom.

The venues are in absolutely stunning settings where I got much needed green therapy.
Hopefully, I will get to join the program again in the future.
Big thanks to Angloville for the experience AND for making my birthday so special even though a few days prior, I didn't know a single person who was to celebrate with me!

What would you improve about this program?
It would be nice if we could have our own rooms as some rooms are really small and people need to do laundry by hand-washing and get rest. That said, I enjoyed the roommates I had!

The one week we got lots of conflicting info regarding times, schedule, etc. They kept changing which was confusing and not efficient for anyone. Expectations were not always clear.

Some of the materials have grammatical errors/misspelling which should not be acceptable

Could eliminate waste: no plastic folders, no need for three nametags/lanyards for people like me who did three in a row.

**Highest regard to Aaron and his Czech coordinator (can't spell his name offhand) who were fantastic!**

Unique opportunity to gain insight into other countries and cultures

I've volunteered 4 times with Angloville - two in Hungary and two in Poland. I've enjoyed each of them. No two sessions are alike. The opportunity to meet people from the participant countries and other anglo volunteers from around the world is truly unique and provides perspectives into different countries and cultures I would not have gained otherwise.

Even if they don't realize it, everyone participating is an ambassador and representative of their country and city regardless if a participant or volunteer. I've learned people are people are people with similar needs, wants and desires regardless of country of origin. The volunteers are sincerely interested in the participants succeeding and getting as much as possible from their experience. I'm looking forward to my next session.

What would you improve about this program?
Expedite the process for volunteers who have previously successfully participated in the program.

My review

Engaging event and satisfying to help a very receptive group improve their English skills. I am not impressed by the requirement to use a minimum seven hundred and fifty characters in order to write a review to qualify for refund of my deposit. If I did not object to using emojis to express my emotions I would use them to make up the required number of characters. I have said all I want to say in the first sentence of my review so will make up the requisite seven hundred and fifty characters with meaningless filler which will waste my time and that of the person who will review it. Given the opportunity I could have written a more comprehensive and possibly more positive review but resent what I see as a rather manipulative technique to elicit a more elaborate review which could be used to promote the programme.

Questions & Answers

The two companies I have used for this so far are Angloville and VaughanTown. The enquirer needs to visit their websites and discover what the conditions are. There is availability throughout the year and quite often spaces available on trips at short notice that may not yet have been filled. Angloville has a Facebook page also. volunteers.grupovaughan.com/what-we-do/vaughan-town angloville.com
