I loved volunteering at Turnbull Tech! Daudi is very welcoming, and the students were very excited to meet me. In the classes they students are a little shy, but once you get them involved, they open up and talk a lot. This destination is in a unique city, up a mountain, and quite beautiful. The teachers at Turnbull are very accommodating and help you learn about the town, get food and give you plenty of fun things you can do in the city. I can't wait to go back!

Honestly, I liked your performance in and outside the classes, also I was so happy with your commitment of coming at Turnbull Tech College because you brought to us many skills especially to our students and my family of Turnbull Tech in general. Everyone was so excited for everything from you from a first day you arrived here in Iringa, really we want you again at college just for helping our fashion classes and designing very unique styles about clothes.

Mr Daudi Kingalata is super welcoming, very supportive and very positive. He is flexible and easy to work with. He will go out of his way to make you feel welcome and at home. Daudi is an entrepreneur with a big heart and strong core values around helping people. His the school supports the tuition for 3 – 4 poor students. I have also watched him provide very generous support of the small Anglican church's building fund in his small home village. We have become good friends over the month that I have spent volunteering to teach conversational English at the Turnbull Tech the school.

Mr. Neil is a good friend to everyone therefore I liked him from my heart the way he was and taking many things seriously about developing Turnbulltech vocational Training College. Further more he did a great work for helping students in groups to learn English language fluently, he developed a new idea of starting a company which is "Turnbull Tech Computer Repairs " and also he was a good advisor of having the strong strategies in both projects every year.
But also he provided to us his good thoughts on how we can expand clothing and textile program ( Sewing machines ) and having like "Turnbull Tech Manufacturing" then one day we can find the market of it abroad of my country including his country ( Canada )He know me very well that I want to be a big business man and helping my community effectively.

I found Turnbull the school when I researched my route from Lusaka (Zambia) to Moshi (Tanzania). The project is right halfway through the Iringa region. Everything was a big surprise for me: the small town, the community, the project and especially Daudi the host. Daudi has a big heart, he was super careful and considerate to the point of becoming a good friend. He is responsible for the project and works very responsibly. If you can, don't go through the region without visiting this project first. I really recommend.

We are appreciate more his great work he has done about our project in Iringa. Thank you Tayke for coming at our college, please welcome again next time although we still in contacting each other.

Daudi is an excellent host! Nice and talkative. It was my first time in Africa and he really took care of me. He was always caring about my safety and wanting me to enjoy the Tanzanian life. He wanted me to be happy and to enjoy every time. I felt really welcome! About the volunteer activity, Daudi is really open to let you do whatever you want for help. He let me to be free to choose. I started teaching Spanish language, but after a week, the student had holidays. So after that, I helped them with some administration stuff, what I really enjoyed to do. Thank you! And see you next time!😃
