An experience for everyone

GoCamp Ukraine sent me to the western city of Ternopil, three hours by train from Lviv. On the night of my arrival I was met by the friendliest host family I could have asked for. We quickly became close and my stay with them proved as central to my GoCamp experience as the teaching itself.

The class I was assigned varied in age, though most children were between 10 and 12. Teaching them English through my own personal life experiences proved incredibly fun for all of us, and the teacher I was assisting provided me with continuous guidance. I was also shown a number of landmarks in the area in a number of day trips organised for the class and myself by the school.

I cannot stress how well organised GoCamp is. I could not attend the orientation session at the beginning of my stay due to passport issues. My GoCamp coordinators were quick to assist me and provided me with a SIM card and train tickets despite my late arrival. I strongly recommend GoCamp to everyone, and I would be happy to see you this June in Lviv if you find yourself in the vicinity! :)
