The volunteer will have two days off which they will spend partly with friends or a mentor. The hosting organization provides EVS volunteers with two mentors who can be real friend for volunteers and with whom they will discuss any problems and questions which may arise. The mentors are responsible for providing volunteers with linguistic support during the first months of their staying in the project, so volunteers and the hosting project will have no language problems. Once a week volunteer will have a personal meeting with a project’s coordinator to discuss achievements, troubles, future plans.
