In Hungary, my confidence increased as far as my ability to communicate with people and my ability to touch other people s lives. At the end of it I was really a little overwhelmed and awed by the relationships I had developed and the friendship and love that was shown toward me. Here are the nuts and bolts of how CETP works. Teachers will attend a week-long orientation in the host country prior to the beginning of the school year.
Contracts are renewable by mutual consent between the host institution and the volunteer.

Teachers are paid a salary in local currency according to the same pay scale as native teachers. Salaries are more than sufficient for covering everyday living expenses and in-country travel, especially since accommodations are paid for. Expenses are thus limited to food and travel.
