To help and to explore this wonderful country,Morocco, Our schools in Casablanca ,Berrechid and El Jadida welcome you to Morocco!

Getting a chance to see the variety of Moroccan culture, and discover the real life of Moroccan families, customs and traditions.

Sunday afternoon through Wednesday afternoon our guests are free to travel around if they’d like. Wednesday afternoon through Sunday morning is when guests are needed the most we need volunteers all the week if they don’t go on those organized cheap tours

We host native or fluent speakers of English or French to give our learners a chance to explore a comfortable environment to practice and build their confidence in speaking.

"Working with the school was one of the most humbling experiences I have ever had as a Workaway Ambassador. They took us in like family. All of the meals they cooked for us, the group trips around the country, and of course the classes consistently filled with interested, engaged learners made my time in Morocco the best Workaway experience possible. Thank you to everyone for an amazing opportunity to help mold the minds of these students, I will certainly be returning soon!"

It has been almost two years since my first workaway with Mr. Harim, but I still remember it like it was a yesterday.

Vom Workawayer (Rui) für Host

I spent two weeks at Harim’s space in Casablanca. Mr. Harim is responsible for coordinating volunteers and distributing them across various schools around the city. In my case, I was placed at a school located a bit outside the city center, in a more peripheral area.

During my stay, I had the opportunity not only to get involved in the daily… read more life of the school where I was based, but also to meet volunteers from other schools, especially on weekends. On weekends, Harim organizes trips to different parts of Morocco, open to all volunteers, which gave me the chance to explore the country and connect with other people.

Even so, the environment within my own school was truly exceptional. I was lucky to live and share experiences with people from different countries and backgrounds, forming strong and meaningful friendships. We shared unforgettable moments, exchanged life experiences and learned a great deal from one another. I also had the chance to get to know some of the teachers at the academy. They were not only excellent professionals, but also genuinely kind and open people.

As for the classes, we worked from Wednesday to Sunday. The schedule varied from day to day — for example, on Wednesdays we only had a 1h30 class, while Saturdays, being the busiest day, included classes throughout the morning and afternoon. Despite this, the workload was always manageable and left plenty of time for rest and exploration.

During our free time, we often took the opportunity to explore the city. Local transport, especially taxis, was very affordable — a ride to the city center cost around eight dirhams, making it easy and inexpensive to get around. Aside from the meals provided on certain days (Thursday, Friday, and Saturday), we were responsible for preparing our own food. Thankfully, there is a local market just below the school, where we could buy fresh ingredients at very low prices, especially vegetables. On the days when meals were provided, we were lucky to have them prepared by a lovely woman named Hassania. She was extremely caring and her cooking was amazing!

On a personal level, I joined this experience with the goal of connecting with a culture different from my own — to gain a new perspective on life and the world, to experience a reality beyond mine, and to grow from it, while also hoping I could give something meaningful in return. That human and cultural exchange was, without a doubt, one of the most powerful parts of this experience. I had the chance to engage with people of all ages, from children as young as 7 or 8 to adults in their 40s and 50s. With the younger ones, we often followed the teachers' guidance and helped them practice what they had learned in class. With the older students, there was more flexibility — we engaged in free-speaking sessions, discussing a wide range of topics including their culture, religion, and daily life. These conversations were enriching for both sides. For the students, it was a valuable way to improve their English and broaden their perspectives, while for me, it was a unique opportunity to better understand Moroccan society, its values, and ways of thinking.

If anyone is uncertain about whether or not to try a volunteer experience like this, I can only say: absolutely go for it. As my first WorkAway experience, I couldn’t have asked for a better one. It was incredibly impactful. I made lifelong friends, and I carry with me a deep appreciation and understanding of Moroccan culture. I’m extremely grateful to Harim and Khalil for welcoming me, to the teachers and staff, and to all the amazing people I met along the way. It won’t certainly be the last time we meet.
Thank you so much.

Vom Workawayer (Baiba) für Host

Really big thanks to Harim and all the school staff and students. Overall this is a great experience what you can get here. Initially I planned to stay here one month, but after one other project in Morocco I came back to this one and in total stayed in Harim’s school 3,5 months. He has 4 schools: one in Berrechid, two in Casablanca and one in El… read more Jadida. When I applied for project, I assumed that I will be in Casablanca, but Harim sent me address of one school, so all of this time I was there. I really don’t regret that I wasn’t in one of the Casablanca schools. If you want to try other school while you are here, it is possible to do it, if there are free spaces. After being in Berrechid, I just didn’t want to go to other schools.

In the school we volunteered from Wednesday afternoon till Sunday afternoon. On work days we volunteered few hours on afternoon or evening, on Saturdays few hours on the morning and evening and on Sunday few hours on morning. In all other time we were free. Here you don’t teach English to locals (from some 6-7 years old kids to middle age adults), but you speak with them after their class with local teacher. Usually, we had a topic about what we have to talk with locals, in many cases teachers also gave us questions. Usually, one conversation lasts 15-30 minutes. Every day you have several such conversations. It is possible that you talk just with one local or with several ones in the same time – depends from the group and number of volunteers. In those conversations not only me, but everyone could get a lot of information about Morocco, traditions, personalities, their lives, opinions, etc. You really can learn from them and share with them your own experience.

Harim, thank you really much about everything. I had good experience and communication with Harim (owner of the schools). He is really welcoming, friendly, helpful, caring and just a great man. We have some different opinions about some topics, but that didn’t disturb to communicate. If you will be a bit shorter time here, maybe you will not have a chance to get to know him better, because he is really busy and rarely in in the school. Don’t make an opinion about him, if you haven’t talked with him more in real life.
Thanks also to Fatima (lady who is cleaning the school and cooking lunch on most days). Her cooked food is really tasty. You will have a chance to try different traditional Moroccan foods like couscous, tagine, harira etc. Only she doesn’t speak English or French, but anyway we found way how to talk a bit with her. Her son Tarik is very helpful, friendly, understands French and tries to learn English. Once I and other volunteers were invited to their home for tea – really good experience.

Teachers in the school also are great. We have painted together a mural on one wall, have eaten dinner together in one teacher’s family home during Ramadan. There was a chance to learn Arabic from some teachers, also how to cook some Moroccan foods, some girls had henna evening together, etc. If you are opened, you can try many things and make friends.

Big thanks to Harim and the driver Jawad about organized trips. During those trips I probably saw a lot of most important places in Morocco. Trips are usually happening on the days off, if there are enough volunteers from all schools who want to go to those trips. Jawad is a great driver and a wonderful person. I could say that he became one of my friends here. My favorite trip is Chefchaouen (blue city) trip, where I went twice. I also liked Ouzoud waterfalls trip. In the third place (for me) I would put Merzouga (desert) trip. Essaouira trip wasn’t for me.

Living in the school was basic, but good. We all volunteers of the school were living in the first (or can say basement) floor of the school building. In average we were 10 volunteers in the same time, but I also experienced, when we were 17 and that was a bit chaotic. I really enjoyed when we were only some 6-7 volunteers, because then everyone felt closer, could make normal connection with everyone, get to know everyone better, and also it was nicely more quiet and more calm. Definitely, being between all other volunteers from everywhere in the world you also can learn a lot and make some friendships. In the school we had pretty big kitchen, where we could cook, only it was very chaotic when we were a lot of volunteers. Yes, kitchen needs some upgrades (if we are many in the same time), what we already said Harim. We had washing machine (with its own character), a rooftop where to dry things and hangout. Also had shower (had to go through one classroom) with regular problems: have only cold water (most probably in this case gas balloon is empty); had only cold or burning hot water and couldn’t get warm one. Only few times per week I could get normal warm shower (less times than with some problems). But you get used to all that. Berrechid itself is not a touristic place, almost could say that we were the only foreigners in the city. Because of this you have to take in account that especially women will get a lot of attention from locals (mostly younger man and kids), but this attention mostly is not aggressive and better just to ignore it. Otherwise Berrechid is enough calm place (compared to other, more touristic cities in Morocco) where to stay and to start to feel like in the 2nd or 3rd home.

This turned out not just as a thank you, but also as a lot of suggestions for next volunteers. One more time thank you to everyone who I met here about the great time, good relationships, a lot of new information, emotions etc.

Vom Workawayer (Esra & Ravi) für Host

First we want to thank our Host Harim for everything. He is a lovely person with a big heart and we are glad that our ways crossed.
We stayed at the academy actually way longer than expected. Luckily everything was pretty flexible and we could experience different schools, which made our experience even more unique.

The help with the students… read more was easy but so meaningful as you could talk about profound topics and learn a lot about their perspective and opinions. We had so much fun talking to the students and miss them already!

The first school we visited was located in a small City called Berrechid. For us by far the best one. The students, the teachers and the Secretary were so kind and so lovely. They do a amazing job and really care for the students!
The people we met outside the school have been so incredibly welcoming and invited us multiple times to eat their traditional food, which we couldn’t get enough of because is was so unbelievably tasty.

After that we went to the school located in Al-Jadida. We met extremly unique and special Volunteers at that time which made our visit really comfortable there as well. We loved the food from the Maid and had the best Rfissa there, fell in love with the street food and enjoyed a small city on the coast which had a big city flair.

Casablanca Downtown was great but in comparison our least favorite because the volunteers were really young and not that interested in the culture as you should. Even one teacher who was staying in the apartment was so childlike, hooked up with a volunteer and behaved immature. Once she said that “All black people always make problems”. So not our type of people. It was a little bit strange because you couldn’t take them so serious as teachers at the school anymore.
But staying in Casablanca was a REAL privilege as we fell in love with the city very much. It was one of our favorite city’s in Morocco.
We were so happy that we could spend time there.

We definetly recommend any school for the sake of the experience because you do gain a lot from it but advise you to be aware that you’ll meet really young volunteers sometimes who create a opinion really fast and sometimes therefor sit together and talk in a real ignorant and superficial way about different cultures.
If you are older and you are really interested in the culture you might be happier at Berrechid or Al Jadida.

We do miss the intelligent and lovely students already and will keep the memories with them for a lifetime. We hope that Harim will continue his important work and that the students will pass the exams and will make their dreams come true to study abroad!

Vom Workawayer (Joachim) für Host

Hi Harim and all the beautiful team that made my time in Morocco so special!
I am sorry for the late review, but since it's long overdue I will get right to the point. At first I only planned to stay for a month but found myself staying with Harim for 6 weeks working in the schools in Downtown Casablanca and El Jadida. I was by far not the only… read more volunteer staying for longer than intended, which I think is very telling. Everyone makes sure that you feel welcome and comfortable from day one.

The teaching is very easy and fun, it allowed me to learn a lot about the lives of the students and their view on the world. It would usually consist of short conversations with one to three students of all ages and levels. The working hours were very reasonable and Harim tried the best he could to accommodate for our wishes in order for us to have some time to work (online) or explore the City. As long as you keep an open mind the teaching is nothing to be nervous about. Among both the teachers and students I had beautiful and memorable interactions, which I am very grateful for.

I stayed in the apartments associated with the two schools I've been to and found them to be very social environments where I made many friends among the other volunteers. Be prepared to have somewhat limited privacy, though. While living in a relatively tight space with persons from wildly different backgrounds and beliefs can be stressful sometimes, it will definitely improve your communication skills and broaden your mind. I really enjoyed the sense of community we had among ourselves.

Several times each month there are trips to the desert or the coast or the north of Morocco. I went on the desert trip together with 20 or so other volunteers from all the schools, which meant that I got to know lots of cool and interesting people from the other schools. For all of us it was a highlight, we got to see Marrakesh (briefly), the Dades canyon and the desert near Merzouga and did some cool things like sand boarding down the dunes. Another time I joined up with two of my co-volunteers to rent a car and do a little road trip down the (gorgeous) southern coast between the teaching days. (Note: We organized that on our own but it's cool we could agree to get enough time to do so - circumstances allowed it but it may not always be the case)

In my opinion Casablanca was the more interesting of the two cities I volunteered in. It was great to mingle with the locals in one of the bustling markets, do some sports/read a book in a park or go on an evening walk to Hassan II Mosque. Having a little everyday life in another city was one of the great perks of this volunteering experience. It is also great to keep your expenses way down (especially if you shop groceries in the medina and not the supermarket).

The biggest challenge by far was communication, as there was always something to request, like improvements or repairs in the apartments and it turns out that juggling ~30 volunteers between 4 different locations is not an easy task. Personally I had no real issues though, I tried to always make my intentions clear and stick to the hours expected from us.
My favourite part was the social component of the whole experience, as I met people from literally every continent of the world (save the Antarctic), among them many lovely locals who were more than happy to share their knowledge with me.

A big thank you to everyone who was a part of this, I will always carry my time in Morocco in my heart!

Vom Workawayer (Jessa) für Host

This was my first work away experience and it was amazing. I couldn't have asked for a better way to start to my travel journey!
I stayed at this work away for a little over a month. There are 4 schools, Casablanca uptown, Casablanca Downtown, El Jadida, Berrchid. I stayed 2 weeks in uptown Casablanca, 2 weeks in downtown Casablanca and 1 week in… read more El Jadida. The downtown Casablanca apartment was separate from the school and is based in the centre of Casablanca, a short walk to the medina, the uptown Casablanca apartment is within the school building but has its own floor and it is a little bit further from the centre. The El Jadida apartment was also located within the same building as the school just down the hall, however this was my favourite. The apartment was very nice, with a huge rooftop terrace that is only accessible to the volunteers, and in the two out of the three rooms given, you had your own balcony. The city was much calmer than Casablanca, and the beaches here were also very nice. I was lucky enough to meet a talented musician here and was able to listen to him play with other talented musicians in the local area most nights, and it was incredible, seeing all the locals coming together and creating music was so nice. I wish i had more time here.
I got the chance to live with very lovely people from all over the world. You get 3/4 days off (in El Jadida it is a little different, i am pretty sure you only have Monday off) and during this time you can go and see different parts of morocco or go on these amazing trips that Harim organises for all the volunteers. I 100% recommend going on these trips, it is a chance to meet all the other volunteers from the 4 different schools, and also explore the cities for a good price. There is the desert trip and the Chefchouen trip. During these trips I met some of the most amazing people and shared beautiful experiences with them. I was surrounded by people speaking French, Spanish and German, and i think i have picked up a lot of vocabulary from them ,especially the french ;) The driver, Jawad is also one of the nicest people you will meet, he took care of us on these trips. He was so funny and nice.
The work/teaching was very easy and simple, the teachers give you a topic and you have simple conversations with the students. In downtown Casablanca and El Jadida, classes were only 1 hour a day, more or less apart from Saturday which i think is a little longer, they are also scheduled at a good time, normally around 19h/20h so you have more than enough free time to explore the city. The teachers and students were also very nice, and it made me happy seeing the students super eager to learn.
I want to thank Harim for everything that he organises and for being so nice and helpful. Also allowing me to have experiences and make memories that i will never forget. Hilal (Harims assistant) was also super nice, he always asked how you were and made sure you were ok. Thank you Harim for letting me stay here, it was amazing. I wish them the best and I hope to be back soon :)

Vom Workawayer (Stepan) für Host

Living in Harim's community for 3 weeks was the best thing that could have happend to me in Marocco.

First things first, let's talk about our host, Harim. Originally, I was supposed to staye at another workaway, but it was cancelled just 2 days before my flight to Marocco. Luckily, I found this last-minute opportunity as a teacher at a language… read more school, therefore I immediately reached out. It didn't take even 10 minutes before I recieved a response from Harim that I can stay. He was really brief and to the point, so I didn't really had to ask what to do. I just had to pack my things and I head to Marocco. Every weekend, Harim prepared for us some trip around Marocco (I personnaly did the desert trip and Al Jadida trip), which were one of the greatest moments. Even though I sometimes didn't get what exactly was the trip about, Harim always managed to work everything out and organize the trip perfectly. For me it is a real mystery how he could manage everything - it is not easy to take care of 4 school and another 20 volunteers. In conclusion Harim is really hard-working, outgoing and kind person (albeit a bit confusing at times😄).

Another thing is the "working" part. I put there quotation marks because tasks (teaching) you are given are quite easy and sometimes it can get a lot interesting when you are teaching English to more advanced students. This allows you to start conversations about their culture, politics, life etc. In the morning, you primarily teach children, which can be from time to time exhausting. However, do not worry it's still simple. :)

Harim runs 4 schools and I had the honor of staying in three of them (Berrechid <3, Al Jadida, Casablanca). The accomodation is mostly appartments, where 5-7 people can comfortably fit with plenty of space. The appartments are clean and cozy. In Berrechid flat where I stayed the most, we received Marrocan national dishes for a lunch every working day. Because the appartmentss are in the city, there is always something to do in the evening or during your free time between the lessons such as drinking tea with locals, going to the gym or playing pool.

Overall, I believe my three-week trip couldn't have been better. For not that long period of time, I absorbed the local atmosphere and culture more than I could ever imagine. If you are seeking for some remarkable experience that you hope you would never forget this workaway is for YOU!

Thanks - Stepan

First, I am sorry for the delay, but I needed to have plenty of time to say everthing I wanted to. I was volunteeing there with my friend Elisa for four months and it was an AMAZING experience.

The first two weeks we stayed in Fez. The staff there is very friendly and overall Horeia, the woman who cooked for them and us three times a week for a… read more little amout of money. Her dishes were incredible.

Elisa and I decided to take this workway experience because Harim (the manager) was offering Arabic lessons appart from the accomodation and the Cuscus on Fridays. That is why after these two weeks, we decided to change the place to Casablanca, since in Casablanca the volunteers were taking the Arabic lessons. I have no words to describe this experience. I feel so close now to the Moroccan culture, not only because of the conversation with the students, but also thanks to my friendship with the teachers (especially Sara and Omaima) and also the recepcionist Houda.

The students are amazing, they are so willing to talk and to know about your culture, and to show you everything about the Moroccan lifestyle. The teacher usually gives you one topic to talk about that day but the only important thing is to make them feel confortable speaking in English. Any topic is welcome, 0 censorship and I loved that.

In Casablanca, the load of work is not too heavy. We used to have all the mornings free (except Saturdays) and in the afternoon, we used to work up to 4-5 hours In Fez we only worked around two or three hours from Monday to Friday and some Saturdays.

The accomodation in Casablanca was perfect. It is a big appartment where you usually share the room with 2 or 3 people and it is located near to the medina and 3 minutes far from the school. The living room was beautiful, it is painted by 2 volunteer who used to stay there in the past. The only problem is that sometimes it is dirty (although a girl cleans it every Friday) and that it doesnt have wifi, only inside the school.

Harim is very friendly and flexible with the days off. If you need a whole weekend free, just let him know and he will manage for covering you.

The Arabic classes were great, One of the English teachers (Sara) was our Arabic teacher also, and she is super lovely and special and incredible as a teacher.

For last but not least, I just want to thank Harim and especially to all the staff and volunteers who made my stay amazing. and of course to all the students who made me cry the day that I left because I will keem them all in my heart for ever,

Hope to see you all soon!

Vom Workawayer (Natalie) für Host

I have mixed feedback. I realise lots of people enjoyed their time here however there are some things I wish I had known as I would probably have made a choice to go somewhere else which would have suited me better. Unfortunately I ended up staying only 3 days. This was due to firstly a change of venue. I had agreed to go to the Casablanca school … read more but on arrival was told there were some problems with the appartment and I would be taken to another. Actually I was taken to stay the night in the family house. While I appreciated the kind attempts to make me comfortable this wasn't what I had been expecting and hadn't been warned in advance so I found it a bit confusing and stressful. The next day I was told I would go to the school in Berrechid instead where the appartment was better. So I went there. Berrechid is a small town where people are not used to tourists. This is certainly an interesting experience if you are looking for that however I found that for the same reason it was a difficult place to be and that was not what I was looking for as a solo female traveller on my first visit to Morocco. We were advised by a poster on the wall not to go out after dark or even in the day time to the busy places and I found that it was the case that it was not safe or comfortable for me to do so alone. I decided to leave because 1. There is nothing to do in Berrechid, 2. I didn't feel at all comfortable or safe going out on my own there 3. The apartment was far too dirty for me (I am a very clean and tidy person and 36 years old and it was very much a student-like shared living situation) 4. It was cold in the house ( I was there in January) the rooms are in the basement and no heaters. 5 There wasn't anywhere to lock valuables - I had asked about this and was told there was but actually there wasn't and I had brought work stuff like my laptop and camera with me.

On the up side: The teaching is very easy (actually I would have preffered to have been doing more), Mr Harim does go out of his way to try to keep everyone happy and to be hospitable. It is on the train line so Marrakesh and Casablanca and further and trips further afield are possible. You can take time off to go on trips for a few days at a time.

I know a lot of people enjoyed their time there, others were also unhappy about things like cleanliness of the house and not being comfortable going out (women) but stayed on anyway.

I'm not saying this workaway isn't good just that it wasn't a good fit for me personally and I think that Mr Harim's desire to please everybody meant that he wasn't as clear about things as he could have been with me. This resulted in my coming to a place that just didn't suit what I was looking for. A bit more info and transparency would be welcome and I don't think it would cause in any way a lack of volunteers but would avoid anyone else like me turning up and then feeling the need to change their plans on finding things are not as they expected.

Vom Workawayer (Tamara) für Host

It is seldom in our lives that we come across a true idealist - a person dedicated to making their immediate world a better place. Mr. Harim is such a person. Although his language schools are a commercial enterprise, dedicated to teaching French and English, his unique teaching model, which includes cultural exchange between his Moroccan students… read more and the western volunteers, helps to dispel stereotypes and misconceptions on both sides. Whilst you will not actually be teaching any classes, you will have the opportunity to observe some amazing teachers in action from whom you can learn much if you are considering entering the TEFL field. At the end of each lesson volunteers converse with the students on the day's topic. In addition to the interaction with the students, teachers, and staff this placement has multiple workawayers which allows for an even greater cultural exchange and networking with fellow travelers. I was so blessed to have the best volunteer mates ever (thank you Ramadan, Josh, Chris, Marina, Tracey, Trevor, Hannah, and Aurora!) I learned so much from them and being in a group provides a level of security that is important for traveling about Morocco, particularly for a single female. This is one of the many benefits offered by this placement. Mr. Harim will facilitate affordable treks to other parts of Morocco as he is genuinely interested in sharing the Moroccan culture, landscape, and lifestyle with his guests. For those of you who want to truly immerse in the Moroccan lifestyle this placement will do it. For some westerners, the accommodations may seem rough, but by Moroccan standards they are actually above standard - NOTE: Always carry toilet paper in your pocket wherever you go in Morocco and bring your own towel for use in the apartment.

There is a lot of idle time during the day, which is difficult for some people - if you require constant movement and stimulation, you may have difficulty. If you enjoy solitude and time for reflection, this place is perfect. This is an Islamic country so you will not find bars and pubs here, there is no party nightlife so for those who seek that - keep seeking. The school has wify so you can catch up on your correspondence. There is ample time to read, you will need to bring books with you as this is a new project and there are many things, such as a library exchange, still in development. The accommodations are still in development and are made better with the contributions of each workawayer that passes thru. Being part of an evolving program was an honor and a privilege and I hope the few things I am sending over for the apartment will make the stay of the next volunteer just a little more comfortable as this is a very worthwhile program and I encourage others to be a part of it.

Thank you Harim for your outstanding hospitality! I look forward to returning next year!

Vom Workawayer (Tasmiah) für Host

I am writing this as I wait for my bus to Tanger, in a comfortable room, a luxury that was haggled by Mr. Harim himself! He took time out of his busy schedule (he cut his dinner party short!!!) to drive me and three other girls I'm traveling with to the bus station and bargained with the driver to give us a good price, along with a nice room for… read more us to wait 2 hours in. Me and the girls are currently discussing how Mr. Harim is collectively the most humble, proactive, generous, and genuine person that we have ever met! You might think that's a pretty catastrophic statement, but this is seriously true, I highly recommend you come see for yourself! He is so concerned for our safety, and wants us to see as much of Morocco as possible, FOR THE CHEAPEST cost! I came to him for any advice I ever needed during my time here. He was always there to show me the best way to get to the places I wanted to go, which included: Chefchaouen (blue city, a MUST to see while you're in Morocco!!!), Fez, Atlas Mountains, Sahara Desert (AMAZING once in a lifetime experience), Tangier (favorite city in Morocco), and many beautiful little pit stops along the way! With the most genuine smile, Mr. Harim was seriously was the most incredible workaway host ever!

Now that we've covered the fact that Mr. Harim is just an angel, on to the volunteer experience! The school downtown school in Casablanca is close to the apartment, and we volunteer anywhere from one to five hours per day! The students are eager to learn and talk to us "guest speakers" as they call us, and it's very fun to talk to locals about their country and their daily lives! The teachers are also very nice and welcoming! The work is not hard at all, we basically come and sit in a room to wait for the teachers to come walk us to their classroom, so we can converse with the students for around 15-30 minutes at a time. We are required to come to the school from 11-2 pm and then 5-6:30 pm. Depending on the day. So even when we are volunteering at the school, we have a lot of spare time (and wifi!! The apartment does not have wifi in Casablanca, but Fez does!) to get things done!

You do have to be adaptable for this workaway which was a positive for me, but just something to keep in mind! Some people who need a set schedule might be thrown off at first because things happen really out on the whim here! One moment we will be sitting in the school, the next we will be running to the apartment to pack for a trip the next day!

All in all, my three weeks spent here were 10/10! I recommend you bring your own toilet paper, paper towel, towels, bed sheets, mosquito repellent, mirror (there are no mirrors at the apartment!) I can't believe my 3-week adventure in Morocco has come to an end! Morocco has become my favorite country in the world!

Vom Workawayer (Bernice) für Host

Though long overdue, I want to add my feedback to the loads already here. It should be clear from all of the other comments that Mr. Harim is a genuinely warm person and that you will have ample opportunity to enjoy your time at the workaway. Interacting with students, teachers, locals, and other workawayers is supremely rewarding.

That said,… read more more details may be useful to help properly shape expectations for those considering this potentially wonderful opportunity to experience Morocco. Mr. Harim cares tremendously that you enjoy your time in Morocco, so he is very generous with both time and information to help facilitate side trips. And though the work is generally light, your commitment when you sign up is to be available as a guest speaker most evenings of the week. This means that you should be prepared to coordinate your travels around the needs of the school, perhaps traveling in rotation with other workawayers to ensure adequate guest speakers are available when necessary.

You may be better served to respect and observe local culture and expectations to a reasonable degree, especially when interacting with students. Wearing shorts, short-sleeves, pants if you're a woman, etc. may draw unwanted attention. Learning a few key phrases and numbers in Arabic and/or French will also serve you well. This is especially true in less touristic cities such as Berrechid. BTW, a taxi ride from the train station to the school in Berrechid should only cost you 7.5 or 10 dh, depending on the time of day. Casablanca is a large city, so you can expect the usual modernities that are associated with a metropolis, including slightly more leniency in dress, etc. Parts of Fes are quite touristic, but the surrounding hills and narrow streets of the medina make it feel a bit less hectic than Casablanca.

The accommodations are also remarkably basic in Berrechid and Casablanca, though I hear that the situation may be different in Fes. My suggestion is that you come with the readiness of potentially improving the accommodations yourself; since work is relatively light, there is plenty of time to be handy and creative. Mr. Harim is always willing to provide funds to support workawayer needs. In the hostel-like accommodations, so you may end up in a mixed dorm situation with folks of all ages, genders and nationalities. Getting to interact with and travel with fellow workawayers is one of the highlights of the experience, really, but try to reduce drama by having an open mind and consideration for one another.

In short, if you come with the right attitude and mindset, there's no doubt that you will enjoy your time as a workawayer in Morocco. It is a lovely country of diverse landscapes with a people and culture just as beautiful. Shukraan to Mr. Harim, the school staff, the students, and the other workawayers for a wonderful first workaway experience!

Vom Workawayer (Nicole) für Host

My boyfriend and I stayed in Harim's language school in Casablanca for 2 weeks and it was a great overall experience!

I have worked teaching English before and here I got to teach two classes which was wonderful and help out with conversational English (through GREAT topic questions created by the teachers) and play some games with the… read more students. Michel also really enjoyed talking with the student's and learning about their lifestyles which are so wildly different than ours at home in Canada and Belgium.

We volunteered for 10 minutes some days and over an hour other days (getting lost in conversation with the students). It just depends. The teachers knocked on our door when they needed us, and on the white board there were class times written down so you know when to stick around. Friday couscous was great and fun to share with the other volunteers and you get Sunday's off!!

You have plenty of spare time to visit the city and the teachers and other volunteers are super helpful with things to do and places to go. Just note that Casablanca is not like Marrakech or Essaouira... it is not a tourist city and there is not much to do, but you can create your own fun with the other volunteers and even have time to pursue a hobby.

The living quarters are in the school, just opposite the hallways and in 3 rooms there are bunk beds and in 1 there are mattresses on the floor. There were lots of people when we arrived so we were in the mattress on the floor room, which turned out to be box springs on the floor. It wasn't the most comfortable bed (it was really hard) but we lasted two weeks on it without any real problems!

The kitchen (very basic) has a stove top and a sink for cooking your own meals (although there are soooo many great places to eat out) which was really nice. The kitchen tended to get messy with so many people living there. The sink kept clogging but you just unclog it and go on your way! The shower and bathrooms were clean and well kept but you'll need to bring/buy toilet paper.

One issue was keys. There were 2 sets of keys when we arrived (for all 8 volunteers) and then by the end 1 set. They were in the middle of changing the locks so things got a bit confusing. Definitely get the phone number or email of another guest or one of the teachers that live there so if you get locked out you can let someone know. They should have it all figured out soon.

Harim was a kind and welcoming host. He was always there to help when we asked for it and he also showed us the best restaurant in town!!!! Be sure to ask him before you leave it is delicious!
He's very easy to talk to and he hosts volunteers like they're family! You would be missing out if you choose not to stay with him in Casablanca!!!

*All the problems with sinks keys etc might be over soon since they're moving into an apartment building!!

All the best for everyone at the school!!!

3 months Morocco......3 months guestspeakers at an English language school.....2 months in Berrechid (quiet place) and 1 month in Casablanca (big city)......Splendid!!!

It was good to have both experiences, because Desirée preferred Berrechid and Ben preferred Casablanca.

In Berrechid there are - apart from the English classes - also French… read more classes and there are also children as students (so not only adults). One of the teachers was even willing to teach Arabic for us, being the volunteers/the guestspeakers. Sometimes there was a demo-lesson and teachers gave each other feedback, which is perfect. In Berrechid the accommodation is fine, there is a lot of space, there is a cleaning lady etc. etc. However: The surroundings are a bit boring.

In Casablanca the accommodation is lesser big, lesser good (cleaning lady wanted!), but the surroundings are very lively. You really live in the center of the city and that can be very convenient of course! By the way: The Moroccan couscous was always there at both locations every Friday!

In general: What we liked most is the philosophy of working as guestspeakers. We - the international volunteers - were the guestspeakers. At the end of each lesson we talked with the students about very interesting topics, chosen by the teachers (compliments!) Guestspeakers and students are really learning from each other! For us it was not that necessary to travel a lot, because the students were the best guides! They always told us about their Moroccan culture! Because we enjoyed our talks with the students so much, for us it was a little bit a pity that the lessons were mostly only in the evening hours. That means that there are a lot of 'empty' hours during the day. Perhaps an idea to give volunteers more tasks depending on their skills. For this reason it will be clear that we liked the Saturday most, because that was a busy school day. It is great that the language institute has the intention to realize for example an English café on Sunday: Talking English in an informal setting should be fantastic!

To end: We can really recommend this place: An environment where everybody is very kind and helpfull. We want to thank all the people (staff, teachers, office ladies, students, volunteers) for the very special period we spent in Morocco. Mister Harim, thank you so much for everything and keep up the good spirit!!!

Warm greetings,
Ben and Desirée (from Holland)

Vom Workawayer (austracey) für Host

I stayed at Harim's Language School in Berrerchid for most of the month of November. I would like to thank Harim for his hospitality as well as Kawter, Fatima, Anna, Ramadan and the other teachers for their friendship and support during my stay.

Harim has two schools, one is Casablanca and one in nearby Berrerchid. Both schools are close to… read more the airport and to other forms of transport making it easy to get around. Mostly the students are the schools are adults and young adults who want to learn/improve their English/French for their job prospects or for their current jobs. Classes are mostly held at night between 6 - 9pm and all day Saturday (currently there is also a class on Sunday in Casablanca).

In terms of effort required this workaway requires little. Each evening (and all day Sat) you sit in one of the classrooms whilst lessons take place. Towards the end of the different lessons you might be called upon to talk with the students. The students often had a "script" that they went go through with you, according to what they had learnt in class that day (or previously). At times these could be more like interviews and felt quite one sided and sometimes intrusive (How old are you? Is anyone in your family rich?). Sometimes they didn’t make sense (what do you look like? Is your sister/brother ugly?). Other times it felt like conversation, both parties talked, laughed and it felt like both the volunteer and the student would gain from the interaction. It was often quite funny when you talked with a group and they would pull out their notebooks and recite everything you had told them the lesson(s) before.

Interaction with the local townspeople and also the school’s students outside of class is frowned upon and basically forbidden by Harim. However Harim will happily organise excursions and day trips for you if you wish to learn more about local towns, the desert, or if you want to go to the locals souks. When he is not teaching it is his goal to make the guests happy. Harim can be very flexible on you taking a few days off here and there to allow for travel and exploration.

I spent my time with the Language School at the Berrerchid site. There are two rooms here where workaways can stay and there is also a 3 bedroom, one bathroom apartment close by where up to 7-8 people live. Living conditions at both places are basic, however very liveable. I would liken it to camping indoors (with a mattress). I would recommend taking a sleeping bag and pillowcase with you as there is no guarantee of clean bedding upon your arrival. If you live at the school there is an amazing cleaner who comes 3 times a week and keeps all communal areas sparkling. She also makes couscous and chicken on Fridays. All other food (and other goods such as toilet paper, washing powder, bottle water, coffee/tea, etc.) you can easily purchase at any of the shops nearby.
Neither Berrerchid nor Casablanca are going to win any awards for their excitement level. Berrerchid especially. This can be hard when you have your days free. Take your kindle, a pack of cards or your laptop with you. I work remotely a few hours each day and that kept me busy (when the internet worked well).

If travelling on your own (as 98% of us were when I was there) it is also important to know that there are not many westerners in Berrerchid. Try to go out in groups/pairs when possible. I had stones twice thrown at me by children, as did a number of the other workaways whilst I was there. Whilst out jogging I was stared at, just walking to the shops I would receive marriage (or other….) proposals as well. Be ready to be thick skinned. However bear in mind these things (not the stone throwing though) I also experienced in other towns in Morocco. Also, for every negative there is also generally a positive. Whilst at the markets I had several people help me as well as some great service in nearby shops and restaurants. The staff at the bakery near the school are lovely as are the owners at the nearby Italian café, we had some great service at the local Hamman too. Of course there are also the great teachers and staff at the school who are always there to help and befriend you.

I stayed at the academy in October and I really enjoyed my time. Harim was very kind and welcoming. He offered to pick me up at the airport when I arrived. When my plane was delayed and he was unable to, he had a friend waiting for me at the airport. I unknowingly arrived during the feast of Eid Mubarak, and it made the experience so much… read more better for me. Harim arranged for us to spend the feast with a local family where we got to witness the slaughter of the sheep (optional) and see how Moroccan families celebrate this Holiday.

Although, I had an opportunity to teach a class when one of the teachers was sick, as a volunteer your role is to be a conversational partner for the classes. This is the key thing to understand, because a lot of people come expecting to teach and are disappointed when they realize that’s not the case. I really enjoyed my conversations with the students because not only was I helping them with the language but I got to learn a lot about Moroccan culture this way. Often our conversations would carry on after class was over because the students were so engaged and wanted to learn more about the volunteers. This made it especially nice for me.

There isn't much to do in Berrechid, so you’ll have a lot of free time since the classes are in the evenings. This allows you to plan day trips to Rabat or Casablanca and still be back in time for classes. For me personally, this wasn't a problem, but some people like to keep busy. If you’re one of those people I would suggest that you bring some books to read, sneakers if you’re a runner, or whatever you do to occupy your time. You also have plenty of time on the weekends to plan trips to cities further out. Harim is very flexible and has no problem with you taking time off for longer trips during the week. He is also very knowledgeable and helps you plan for any trips.

In terms of food, everything in Morocco is super cheap, so buying groceries is not a problem. This is especially nice since fruits and vegetables are fresh and readily available. If you’re like me and don’t cook very often, buying street food is also extremely affordable.

I’m really glad I had the opportunity to volunteer at the Academy. I met some wonderful people during my stay, including teachers, students and other volunteers. Overall I had a positive experience and would definitely stay there again.

Vom Workawayer (Mattias) für Host

I have thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Academy. I want to say that not all of what I say is serious! First, I want to talk about Harim. I really appreciated every moment Harim spent making the time in Morocco for me and the other volunteers as enjoyable and memorable as possible, like the bus ride to the Atlas Mountains and Marrakesh, the Friday… read more couscous for lunch, which we eat like a tribe on one giant plate, and the vegetable and meat tagine he brought for us every Saturday, and his advice on going to Chefchaouen, a picturesque town to where we hitch-hiked where most buildings are baby-blue, and also the tour he gave me of the city of Casablanca (it's a mad, chaotic place! You have been warned!). Harim has been instumental in helping me to get a great deal out of my stay in Morocco, and I consider him a bellweather of kindness and goodwill. Also, when I got into trouble with the Gendarmes (police in white coats who I call the road doctors) for hitchhiking for a taxi on the main road at night, he came to get me and the other guy I was travelling with late at night at the police station, when he could have been with his family. For that I am grateful, that he took valuable time to save us, these young, irratic nitwits! If not for Harim, I think the Moroccan police would have tortured us... Both with sweet-talk and by making us eat more and more and more until we could not do it anymore! That gives you the idea of true Moroccan hospitality!

Teaching as a job has been very pleasant here in the academy, as the students warmly embraced us and were keen to learn our colourful and important language that is English! Many of the students, especially the young ones, are quite adequate in the language, and require helping to speak. The Academy emphasizes speaking most of all, so it helps if you know how to chit-chat and entertain. I was aweful at chit-chat, but I know how to entertain, so I felt happy with my job there! The discussions we had about our cultures were very INTERESTING. Yes, you will find out when you go there! The staff were very accomodating as well, and brought great quality and leadership to their lessons.

Also, beware that if you come here, you are coming to a Sharia country, which means things are quite different here. Harim really cares about the image of the school, and he will say himself that Moroccans judge a book by its cover, therefore the actions of the fellow teachers reflect upon him and the school. Therefore, the best attitude when you come is curiousity with a reserved and cautious attitude. Harim will tell you everything you need to know. Oh, and dont buy anything without asking him, that is one of the most important rules!

God bless you Harim! I will visit if I come to Morocco again!
