Review

I choose this program because it looked very welcoming and inclusive. As an older volunteer this was important to me.
My instincts were right as the centre and volunteers are very welcoming and supportive whatever your background.
I was apprehensive about staying with a host family but I was matched well with a German family who were incredibly helpful and kind.
Whilst I didn't do as much teaching as I was expecting to the students I had were delightful. I found the lessons fun and stress free and there was a lot of flexibility.
If you are just starting out considering volunteer work abroad then this is an ideal program to give you confidence and make new friends in a supportive environment.
I was sad to leave and had a memorable experience

Would you recommend this program?
