– It is a tough question. But I do not think people should have a reason to do volunteer work. I do it because I want to do it. :))

 

 Cool. As an English teacher in VIetnam Australia International school, who is very tired of teaching, why do you still want to contribute your free time to help VHV’s children?

– Well, because I feel tired of teaching for business sometimes so I use VHV to teach what I think is important and the way I think is best for the kids to learn and I like the freedom that is given to the teachers.
And its also interesting to work with the limitations (no internet, no desks etc.). It challanges me.
How do you feel after teaching VHV’s kids those are very naughty because they were born and grew up in special situations compared with VAS’s students?
– It’s hard to teach kids in different age groups and levels. But they are all really lovely kids and when one gets it right they do actually work hard.
