This school is providing a learning environment that is also providing pastoral care and life skills. The other staff in the school are very knowledgeable and caring. The facilities are excellent and materials readily available. The living accommodation is next to the school and provides comfort and an area to relax and plan activities. The head teacher is supportive and happy to give advice re local activities and customs.

Priceless experience

Program: Teach & Thrive: Internship Experience in Egypt

My internship experience at Smith Collins School was truly outstanding and rewarding. During my time there, I gained a wealth of knowledge, both academically and personally. The environment was supportive, profesional, and full of opportunities to learn and grow. One of the most valuable aspects of this internship was the chance to work with students of different age groups which greatly improved my ability to adapt my teaching and communication styles to suit various learning needs. The staff at the school were welcoming and always willing to provide guidance. Overall, this internship not only enhanced my knowledge but also strengthened my self-confidence and passion for working with students. It was a meaningful experience that I will always value and carry forward in my future career.

I have always loved learning about other cultures and people. Egypt, with its old culture, language, and people, has fascinated me for a long time. I also always loved to travel, and I travelled for years after being in Egypt, after finishing my studies in Great Britain, and after leaving Austria in 2004.

I did my volunteer placement with Baladna Projects, January to March 2013. Baladna Projects are based in a small town called El Quseir in the Red Sea District of Egypt. Initially, I was to be utilized as an English tutor and to insert some singing and dance in to a school holiday program for children.
