Box Hill Institute, Australia
I had the honor and privilege to lead a study tour from Australia to Dharamsala, India in September 2018. My students (from Melbourne), are currently studying Community Services (Social work). The iSpiice program served as placement for the students and was directly related to the community development aspect of their studies. I made contact with iSpiice to discuss this possibility and the abundantly positive reception I received resulted in my instant connection with iSpiice and the astonishing impact their program has upon the local community by encouraging social change and promoting human rights. Upon arrival the the iSpiice volunteer house we were given end to end unwavering support. Given that the trip was linked directly to my students area of study, there were some specifics that needed to be co-ordinated. This was done seamlessly, with absolute professionalism and with sensitive consideration of the needs to the local community. The result was incredible. Each of my students experienced life changing interactions with the individuals they worked with. These individuals came from various backgrounds ranging from women and children living in a slum who have little or no access to education apart form the tutoring provided by iSpiice volunteers to women participating in a women’s empowerment project and finally introducing children in an under resourced local school English and IT skills. This unparalleled experience will inform my students work in community services and community development upon completion of their studies and will serve as an excellent point of reference on their CV’s. I can highly recommend the iSpiice experience as an international study abroad experience for students undertaking studies in any Social Work (or related discipline).
Personally, the support i received as a teacher from the iSpiice staff was second to none and I have no hesitation in recommending iSpiice to anyone considering immersive educational opportunities for their students. Thank you iSpiice for everything. You haven’t seen the last of us. Review by Kelly Quirk (Box Hill Institute, Australia)
University of St. Thomas – Minnesota, USA
I traveled with a group of ten students (as their University Professor) to serve with iSpiice. Upon returning to my university, my supervisor asked me for volunteer in India reviews. I simply replied: “I have returned a different person than when I left.” The staff at iSpiice is simply amazing; they provided for our every need! They were gracious, patient and hospitable.
Most of all, they were a fun group of folks to be with. Being 55 I experienced the trip differently from my 20-year old college students, and the staff ensured that all of us grained tremendously and felt engaged.
They made certain that we encountered that perfect balance of adventure and support. I simply cannot say enough about this program, the organizational leaders, and the people I worked with in India. I vow to return! Review by Barbara Gorski, USA (University of St. Thomas – Minnesota)
Sari Essec, University of France
Amazing experience, truly one of a kind. We were a group of 18 students around the age of 17-22 from the University of Sari essec, Frace. We had a choice of going to the school, teaching and playing with the street kids at a local school run by iSpiice Volunteers, and lastly, teaching at government schools some English and math, all very basic, nothing to worry about.
We all of us had a great time. Volunteer house was really good safe, had good food, We also met a few other volunteers who stayed at the house the same time as we did, great opportunity to make connections worldwide!
After volunteering with iSpiice volunteers, iSpiice kept us updated about the kids. We truly feel like we are part of the iSpiice Family. Thank you iSpiice for everything.
Year On,Gap Year Program, America
This program was one of the best experiences of my life. I traveled with 9 mates during my gap year. Program was divided into three parts, Voyage, Launch, and Internship. During these phases, you will travel, make an impact and gain the skills and self-confidence that will help you need move forward to the next chapter.
In Voyage, I spent three months volunteering in India. I got to explore the country and learned about its culture while teaching English to a group of women’s empowerment. Then in Launch, I embraced my curiosity and explored different areas of interests by creating for the sake of making something new, instead of thinking or worrying about the final product. Some cool things I did were a stop-motion short film and an animated room experience, a collaboration with two other fellows where we projected drawings on three walls. On the last and final part of the program, thanks to the portfolio I created with everything I did during my time in San Francisco, I found an internship for a travel startup and was able to put everything I learned into real-world experience.
Apart from that, I made friends and memories that will stay with me for the rest of my life. Thank you for an incredible year! Agostina Cerdan Niell, Germany.
University Malaysia Pahang.
As a group it was very easy to navigate iSpiice information to find the best fit for us. When we arrived in India, the on-site staff provided a unique volunteer experience for our group by setting up teaching campaigns in different communities. We were able to assist several community efforts while gaining multiple perspectives. It was really inspiring to see the work the in-country team was doing. Sharifah Kadir, University Malaysia Pahang.
