Experience with Gotoco on Short-term programme in Vietnam.

This programme offers the chance to step out of your comfort zone, work on self-development, learn new things and meet new people all whilst experiencing a different culture. It also provides all of this with a background support network in the form of locally based coordinators that allows you to be independent and figure things out on your own but are there to offer peace of mind.
The opportunity to live and work in a community as well offers a much better experience than just travelling through, you get to experience the culture and local customs so much better and make local friends. I stayed with a host family and it was such a lovely experience.
Teaching in the local schools could be challenging and was definitely difficult at first but after a while you get used to it and I ended up really enjoying it and having fun. The programme also offers the chance to work towards a TEFL qualification alongside.
