Vom Unternehmen geschrieben
Gotoco organises summer TEFL placements to promote global student mobility and cultural exchange. We also offer a small number of longer term TEFL fellowship career programmes. Since 2011 we enabled more than 2,000 university students to undertake summer placements across 100 locations all around China. In 2022, we have expanded to cover destinations around the world - primarily Europe, Colombia and Thailand. We care about accessibility - global adventures should be open to all, and so we minimise fees and give out as many 100% fee-free spots as we can fund. We are called Gotoco because we aspire to be the 'go-to; for anyone wishing to 'go to' global TEFL adventures! The dictionary defines "go-to" as "someone or something that is regularly or repeatedly chosen or employed for reliably good results" In our first decade of operations, we focussed on projects in China, we chose to offer TEFL adventures there because it is both a fascinating and nuanced culture, but also it sits at the centre of world news and is a powerhouse behind the global economy. Gotoco is a social enterprise with a presence in the UK, China and Hong Kong. We are rated highly by 2000+ participants that have taken part in programmes since 2011, for our work we have been shortlisted for the following awards: For our efforts in building a community of young China watchers and offering support to educational institutions across China, we were finalists in the 2019 China Social Impact Awards - an award organised by the British Chamber of Commerce in China in partnership with the United Nations: For our TEFL and China education initiatives, we were finalists for best educational product with the British Youth Travel Awards. For provision of summer internships in China to students from Oxford University we were granted gold star host status. For more info, check out our site (www.goto.co)

Lots of support and fun!
I had a really good experience with Gotoco, and had the opportunity to teach in China. They provide lots of support and communication particularly pre-departure to put your mind at ease! The whole experience is a very rewarding and I would recommend.
Overall a very enjoyable experience.

GOTOCO - Italy, 2024
My most enjoyable moment of the trip was hiking up the hill at Sanremo to see the ruined city that was destroyed in an earthquake, and enjoying a lovely meal overlooking the surrounding area.
The experience of teaching my own class of students, making friends with other gotocoers, gaining teaching skills, meeting new people in a local context and exploring northern Italy! I also loved being immersed in Italy and its culture
Great Experience
I had an excellent experience teaching abroad through Gotoco - they were very helpful throughout the process in helping organise my placement in China and they gave very useful assistance in organising visa and providing me with pre-travel information. They also organised a really enjoyable end-of-program trip. Would recommend!
My experience with Gotoco in Thailand…
My experience with Gotoco in Thailand was amazing. I got to experience so many different things and learn more about Thai culture whilst teaching. I would 100% recommend!!
GOTOCO China Trip
I had an incredible experience with GOTOCO, both at my summer camp placement, where I gained as much from the children in confidence and experience as I could ever have imagined, but also in the friendships and experiences at the after-camp trip in Yangshuo. It was a wonderful opportunity to explore China, and something I would not have undertaken without GOTOCO!
Incredible opportunities with lots of…
Incredible opportunities with lots of support. A fantastic way of experiencing another culture
Worthwhile experience
This was really fulfilling as an experience - I learnt so much about teaching and gained loads of confidence, made many new friends, and got to learn about and live in an entirely different country from the UK. It was an intense schedule but entirely manageable, and the end-of-programme trip involved many fun activities, the highlight being white water rafting
A once in a lifetime experience!
There was sufficient funding and organisation to make the trip a truly immersive cultural experience whilst also helping one gain soft skills used for teaching and practical work in the field.
An enjoyable experience
I had a brilliant time teaching in China - very well organised and a brilliant way to experience the country.
Teaching abroad
This course was an excellent way to prepare me for teaching abroad. The TEFL course was funded, and I got the experience to teach abroad. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a big change in their life

It was an overall cool experience where I made lots of friends, saw many beautiful parts of china and got to have real world teaching experience with the support of the gotoco team. Although I struggled a bit with the teaching as we didn’t receive a lot of training beforehand. However, I think I got the hang of it through help from the coordinators and other participants.
It definitely teaches you to be more independent as a leader for young kids and independent as a young adult. You also learn how to be more flexible and how to deal with unprecedented circumstances. I wouldn’t recommend it to people who get stressed easily and aren’t comfortable going with the flow as you will be put in many situations without a lot of prior notice.
Despite all that I definitely don’t regret going and am very grateful for the opportunity to see China and have a unique and fun experience.
everyone should do this!!!!!!!!
my experience on the China programme was incredible. you meet so many interesting people from all over and get to share the experience together. it's not just about teaching but completely immersing yourself in a new culture altogether. if you are looking for something to do over summer this is a really cheap way to have a super cool and unique experience!!!!!!
Incredible teaching experience in China
Incredible teaching experience in China
We explored remote and large cities within China. It was such a unique experience run by highly knowledgeable coordinators.
The teaching aspect was very rewarding, I learnt a lot about myself and about the teaching culture in China.
An experience I will not forget!
My experience with Gotoco in China was…
My experience with Gotoco in China was amazing! I had so much fun with all the other English teachers there and made so many new friends and the culture of China was so different but amazing to see.
The actual English teaching camps were so much fun as well, my classes were very well behaved and I had loads of fun teaching them and the kids had a lot of fun learning from me as well - they even gave me lots of little things to take home which was so sweet!
And the end of programme trip was so much fun, getting to do and see all those amazing things was just such a good way to end the trip!
Funded teaching experience in China
When I first saw this program, I thought it was too good to be true. But it is real and it was amazing! I went on a summer program in China this summer and other than my flights there and any additional extras, everything was funded for me. I had a wonderful time overall; getting to see parts of China I wouldn't otherwise have experienced was incredible, the time teaching, whilst tiring at points, was incredibly rewarding, and getting to spend so much time with the other participants and getting to know and have fun with all of them was always fun and entertaining. I would recommend the program to anyone with an interest in teaching or just a love of volunteering and traveling!
Gotoco China
I recently took part in program with gotoco in Hunan China and I had an amazing time. I was not only able to experience teach for the first time, but I was also able to explore China all with support from the team. I met so many amazing people and had experience I will never forget. I loved working with the children and being able to not only allow them to have fun but give them the encouragement they needed to come out of their comfort zone and practice their English . Definitely recommend this experience to anyone thinking about it.
Must do experience
If you have free time in the summer I would suggest you do this program, you won’t regret it. This made my summer truly special, I fell in love with China; the food, culture and people. The teaching and the challenges faced made me grow as a person and gave me valuable skills that I will use in my future career. I am glad to have learnt now in a relaxed environment full of support. Also I met some amazing fellow participants which I am still in contact with after the program, made memories that will last a lifetime.
Hunan Summer Camp, China
I promise this isn't a scam, bahhah. Even though the website seems sketchy and it is all seems too good to be true. I've been with Gotoco twice now and it has been a great experience. I've gotten to meet really cool people, and explore new places while also gaining teaching experience. The coordinators were really nice and helpful, the schools were good and accommodation was great. It is all pretty well done. The TEFL qualification is also very useful for future career options. I definitely recommend it!
Gotoco 2025 in China
I really enjoyed my experience teaching with Gotoco in China this summer. The programme was well organised and I personally found the teaching very rewarding. I was teaching 15-16 year olds in China, planning the classes was challenging but stimulating and we also enjoyed activities such as a fashion show and fruit salad making. The experience definitely improved my confidence, leadership and public speaking skills and ability to travel abroad. Additionally, the programme offered a trip in Yangshuo after the teaching which involved lots of outdoor activities and was very fun!
