Experience for the CV and the soul...

I absolutely loved being a volunteer teacher at SVS School for English. Here are my highlights (in no particular order):
- Living and working in a gorgeous tropical island. Exploring the country and culture with an awesome team.
- Being part of an awesome team! Living, teaching and travelling together - so much fun was had every day. Belly laughs every day. Inside jokes... you feel part of a wonderful little family.
- Developing skills - like public speaking, writing and yes - learned some things about the English language I didn't know. My confidence increased immensely.
- Feeling a deep and utter sense of fulfilment from doing something worthwhile. The respect and kindness shown to you by students, being part of their world, however briefly, is uplifting, and a balm for the soul.
- Great support from the program team. Lesson plans, teaching guidance, living in Sri Lanka... never felt alone or unsupported.
