Last year, I went to a poor mountain village as a volunteer teacher. I stayed there for three months. That experience changed my life a lot.
When I first arrived there, I was shocked by the poor living conditions. The school was very old and small. There were only three classrooms and one office. The students had no books or pens. They had to write on the ground with sticks. But the students were very hard-working. They got up early every morning and walked a long way to school. They loved studying very much.
I taught them Chinese, English and Math. I also told them stories about the outside world. They were very interested in my stories and always asked me a lot of questions. I felt very happy when I saw the bright smiles on their faces.
After class, I played games with the students. We played basketball, badminton and hide-and-seek. They also taught me how to pick wild fruits and catch fish in the river. We had a lot of fun together.
When it was time for me to leave, the students were very sad. They gave me many gifts they made by themselves, such as paper flowers and cards. They said they would miss me very much. I cried too. I promised them that I would come back to see them again.
Now, I often write letters to the students. They also write to me and tell me about their study and life. That volunteer experience taught me that love is the most beautiful thing in the world. It can make the world a better place.

My Unforgettable Volunteer Experience
Last weekend, I had a wonderful volunteer experience. I went to the old people's home with my classmates.
When we arrived, we helped the elderly clean their rooms and wash their clothes. Then we sang songs and told stories to them. They were very happy and talked a lot about their past life. At noon, we had lunch together with them. We cooked some delicious food for them.
I felt a little tired but very happy. I learned that we should care more about the elderly. It was really an unforgettable experience.
