Descrição
Hello Workawayers,
My name is Hai, a 37 years old married man with a 9 years old daughter and a 6 years old son. I am very friendly and easy going. We are living in an apartment in Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam. I am currently working as an university assistant professor in Hanoi.
I have used to study in Japan for couple of years and understood how important English language is and I have also worked hard with learning English for my work. Thus, for me, English is the key to open the future success! At the same time, my kids love learning English very much, but it is not easy to find a good environment for them to practice English in my country. Thus, I and my wife decided to open this volunteering English class (Non-Profit) for my kids and their friends to which they can have a good opportunity to speak English naturally as a native speaker, taking a first important step to their successful future! We are thoroughly happy with this project as we can spend more time with my kids and help others within our efforts.
For that purpose, it is really happy for us if you, the native or fluent English speakers, can come and help our kids to practice English.
Volunteers will be provided with free accommodation and each couple will receive 1,000,000 VND a week for food. And after spending at least 1 month with us, we will support for free transportation and hotel for the tour weekend to Sapa, Ha Long Bay or another North Vietnam province and many other beautiful places in Vietnam!
If Volunteers can commit to 3 months or more then I will pay for you to go to Da Nang, or another Province in the South of Vietnam, and we also pay for the Visa fee!
Thank you very much!

All of the kids were a pleasure to teach, of course at times kids can be… read more

This was my first… read more

We are not usually the type of people to write a negative review about someone but feel you should be aware of how we were treated by Hai before they get in touch with him.
Firstly, Hai was very slow to respond to our messages when trying to arrange our placement with him. I understand it isn’t always easy to respond quickly, but he… read more
We just finished a 4.5 week workaway at this little gem of an after school English program and are pretty devastated to have left. From the moment we got there, Mr Hai, Ms Thao and the kids made us feel like part of the family. We are confident that we will remain friends forever and we will definitely be back to visit (and hopefully… read more
