A Life-Changing Month in Morocco with Volunteering Solutions In August and September of last year, my daughter and I embarked on a month-long volunteering journey with Volunteering Solutions in Rabat, Morocco, teaching English at a local summer school. This experience was nothing short of transformative for both of us.​ The children, aged between 4 and 11, were incredibly eager to learn and showed immense respect and enthusiasm in the classroom. Their bright smiles and curious minds made every lesson a joy. Working with such a diverse age group in a summer school setting allowed us to adapt our teaching methods and truly connect with each student.​ A special mention must go to Fatima Zahra, our translator and guide during our time at the school. Her unwavering support, both during school hours and in her personal time, was invaluable. Without her, our experience wouldn't have been as enriching. Her dedication and kindness left a lasting impression on us.​ Ali, the program coordinator, was also instrumental in ensuring our stay was comfortable and well-organized. From our arrival to our departure, he was always available to assist and guide us, making the transition into Moroccan life seamless.​ Our weekends were filled with adventures as we explored the vibrant cities of Marrakesh, Fez, Casablanca, Chefchaouen, and Tangier. A highlight was a two-day desert safari, where we camped under the stars—a truly unforgettable experience.​ The accommodation provided was a traditional Moroccan riad in the heart of Rabat's Medina. It was comfortable, and the meals were plentiful and delicious, giving us a genuine taste of Moroccan cuisine.​ Reflecting on our time in Morocco, I often find myself longing to return. The connections we made, the cultural immersion, and the joy of teaching left an indelible mark on our hearts. I wholeheartedly recommend Volunteering Solutions to anyone seeking a meaningful and immersive volunteer experience.​ Audrey
