Description
I retired after teaching ESL (English as a Second Language) for 41 years to college and middle school students. What is most enjoyable about teaching foreign students is the opportunity to learn something about their culture and customs. Now that I have retired, I would like to help out in any way I can.
This was my fourth time going to Morocco, and my third time as a volunteer teacher.

Laissé par le workawayer (Paula) pour l'hôte (Come and help our teachers by ...)

I volunteered at this academy in Berrechid for a total of six weeks, and for me this was an incredible, life-changing experience.

Laissé par l'hôte pour le workawayer (Paula)

Paula was an excellent addition to our school! Her stay was only two weeks, but she quickly became a loved member of our family. Her interaction with the children was great and the kids really enjoyed having her there. She is incredibly kind and has a great sense of humor. I wished she could have stayed longer, and we will miss her very much!
