Amazing summer opportunity!

I would definitely recommend Gotoco as they were always really quick and helpful at responding to questions before travelling and even during. Getting to know the kids was one of my favourite parts of my experience, especially as my camp was very small as were the classes. On my last day, one of my classes surprised me by each student individually writing me a card and it was really sweet and memorable.
The kids were always really sweet and fun to play games with in and out of lessons. I enjoyed trying new chinese foods and also we went grape picking as a school trip which was really fun. I think this experience has made me more confident, not only with teaching and children but also with my ability to travel by myself and communicate with people despite having no common language. It has made me want to do similar things in the future and travel more. I loved meeting lots of amazing new people and thoroughly enjoyed Yangshuo. I think the scenery was stunning and it was really fun to go and meet other programme participants. I also loved excursions we made at the weekend while teaching such as exploring Hangzhou and I enjoyed my post-programme travelling lots, especially as I finally got to see the Great Wall!
