Marguerite Keating Teach English, Guatemala   Advice to Volunteers: "First thing I would tell them is just to do it. Second thing I would tell people is to hand themselves over to the experience. Don't impose expectations or standards from [your] own country to the new place and lastly, but far from least, get out there and meet the local people. Move outside the circle of volunteers and get to know people where you're working. It's the best part of the experience."
