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.
