Gotoco placements go beyond classroom experience

If you are considering teaching and living abroad, I cannot recommend gotoco enough!

Gotoco offers a wide range of programmes in different cities across Vietnam, so there is something for everyone.

As for my placement, I volunteered as a kindergarten teacher in Ho Chi Minh City. This placement helped me gain new skills, qualifications, friends and all while living in a new country.

The placement enabled me to connect with the kids, local people and culture in a way that is not possible through short and rushed trips. I have been the kind to cram as much as possible in a short trip but this experience made me aware of more impactful ways of travelling and connecting with people and cultures.

This programme has made me see that there is a host of opportunities around the world, beyond the conventional career routes.

So for me, Gotoco has been more than a teaching and TEFL placement and I hope more young people could benefit from opportunities such as this.
