Karen's Volunteer Story

Karen Kirton just finished her 100 hour TEFL certificate with GVI in Ao Luk, Thailand. She will be staying until September helping with renovation and community projects and teaching her own English class for adults in the Ao Luk Community.

Here's what Karen has to say about her experience in Ao Luk with GVI so far:

Ao Luk is a small, friendly community and one of my favorite parts of this experience has been walking around the town and meeting people. Be it shopkeepers, kids running out of their houses to say hello or locals riding on motorbikes, everyone is so friendly and welcoming. We are often given gifts of fruit by our students and other locals, and it is so satisfying to have a past student stop you in the street to practice their English skills! GVI has a great reputation in the area and I have enjoyed being a part of the the GVI group and the community.'
