EOIN (IRELAND) 

VOLUNTEERING FROM APRIL 2024 TO AUGUST 2024

I spent a very memorable four months teaching English at Habibi. The students at the school were a pleasure to teach, with an enthusiasm for learning that made each class as enjoyable as the last. It was wonderful to see the progress that the students made on a weekly basis, and their drive to improve with every lesson. On top of that, the students taught me so much about the world as we shared our own stories from our respective cultures.
The time between classes, and the monthly Spelling Bee, also offered me a chance to meet some of the other students in the school, and I valued the time I spent meeting students from all over the world.

I was very appreciative of the personal and professional support given to me by Steph, Camille, Julian and Raf. Their dedication and commitment to the school and its students is inspiring and I know the school will only go from strength to strength.
My time at the Habibi Center, and Athens in general, was very personally fulfilling and I would recommend to anyone. Mahadsanid! Mersi!
