"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!"

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!

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.

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!

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!

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!

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)
