On my first day at ODC, I immediately felt the wholehearted enthusiasm of the students and teachers in every classroom. I volunteered at the school for 3 months, working as a teacher and teaching assistant in the afternoon and evening classes. The students at every age and every level were a joy to teach and their eagerness for learning English was infectious! This certainly comes from the positive learning environment that the staff and local volunteers have worked hard to create. The ODC team was so kind and welcoming and it was a pleasure to work with them. They even took me on cultural excursions and out for meals in local spots, giving me really special experiences which I would never have had otherwise. I will really cherish my memories at ODC and I highly recommend applying to volunteer at the school if you’re seeking a unique volunteering experience - you will quickly feel part of the ODC family just like I did!
