Volunteer Testimonials
-
Never having worked as a teacher before, this was a new but very rich experience for me. It is a small effort on my part, but it brings great joy and satisfaction. All in all, we had an amazing time.!
-
The atmosphere here is friendly, fun, there's always something new happening, especially when there are new volunteers. My payoff is a smile and a simple "thank you"
-
You have to have a passion for educating kids, most of all, and to help inspire their creativity and build their confidence as young leaders.
