Greetings from Guatemala

When the day finally dawns for me to leave, I know that I will look back on the entire experience with a great sense of achievement and fulfilment. I will have gained much more than I have given ... In future, mention of Guatemala will evoke in me wonderful memories of friendships formed, places visited and a new language acquired.

Sara Mc Murry with a teacher and children from the Shool in Rajasthan (India) where she volunteered for 8 weeks

Volunteers teach in primary schools or work in day care centres in Shiv itself and in the surrounding villages. These are government schools - free education, books and lunch for all the children. But it is hard to get good teachers to come and live in this arid and poverty-stricken region, so the host organisation focuses on providing help with education.

Kelly O'Flaherty - Halfway in China

The teaching is great. My classes are 30 minutes long and there is always a Chinese teacher in the room to help you if you have any communication or discipline problems. The staff at the kindergarten are so lovely and accommodating and really do appreciate you being there. I try my hardest to make the classes as interesting a possible for the kids so I teach them through song and games.
