To see the kids get excited about my lessons

Program: Short-Term Community Development Internship in Ghana

What made my experience great is being able to work with different types of children that I usually work with in London. It was such a beautiful experience to see the kids get excited about my lessons and to see them really learn something.

An experience I would highly recommend for anyone with the time and opportunity to embark on such an incredible journey!

Program: Short-Term Community Development Internship in Ghana

I spent 8 weeks at the GVI base in Ghana through the Teaching and Education program. First of all I want to express how grateful I am for the staff who worked there. They made massive efforts to ensure every participant felt welcome, comfortable and safe. Secondly I want to highlight how friendly and respectful the Ghanaian community was. There are few things better than walking into a school and seeing the children's eyes light up as you enter the front gates. From my time in Ghana I bring back core memories and treasured relationships with people all across the world. An experience I would highly recommend for anyone with the time and opportunity to embark on such an incredible journey!
