“My experience so far has been incredibly rewarding. Working with children who have faced immense challenges, I've witnessed firsthand their resilience and eagerness to learn. It is incredibly inspiring. The people I work with and teach are all incredibly kind and generous and it has made me recognise how grateful I am for my own education and motivates me to be more like them! Knowing that I’m contributing to their learning not only brings me a sense of purpose but also deepens my understanding of the importance of empathy in educating young people.”

“Moving to Malaysia to volunteer as a teacher has been an amazing experience. I came with the intention of making a difference, but I have been profoundly impacted by the resilience and warmth of the children I teach. Each day presents new challenges, but also so much opportunity for growth, for both the children and myself. Being a part of their educational journey, witnessing their determination to learn, has deepened my understanding of the power of education. I have loved my experience thus far and am thankful for being shown the importance of community, adaptability and compassion in making a lasting impact.”
