Gotoco

The highlight for me was reaching all of my SMART goals that I set before the trip. I ended up doing Muoy Thai twice a week and losing 9kg in 6 months. I practised my Thai and can now understand and speak small phrases in a conversation. I have tried different Thai foods at loads of different restaurants. I managed to create a healthy routine that allowed me to socialise, have alone time, work out and get work done efficiently.

Amazing experience, a great way to practise teaching, explore new countries/ cultures and meet likeminded people. Everyone on the Gotoco team was very welcoming and supportive throughout the whole process, they did an amazing job at keeping us safe and informed whilst teaching and travelling. I had a really good time meeting new people from across the world and forming friendships whilst exploring new places together. Definitely worth experiencing, such an immersive, rewarding way to spend Summer!

I had a wonderful time on the Gotoco Hunan Summer 2025 programme. One of my overall highlights was being able to explore so many new places as no two locations were identical. Every town, neighbourhood, or sometimes even street had its own charm. It made me feel like I could explore forever and still find something new. Another highlight would be every time I made a breakthrough with reaching my class. Being able to connect to them despite not speaking the same language fluently was special. I would recommend to anyone seeking a TEFL qualification or even just curious about China.
