Teach Children in Thailand

  Thailand

• Bangkok: 
Bangkok

Durations of Program: 1-2 weeks, 2-4 weeks, 5-8 weeks and 9-12 weeks
Typical Duration of Program: 2-4 weeks

Description: Volunteers help shape young lives in Thailand by sharing their English skills and teaching talents. They teach English to elementary school children ranging in age from 6-13 years. Many schools lack the funds to provide effective English language training. Native or fluent English speakers with or without formal teaching experience can contribute greatly to a child's educational development. Volunteers teach school courses in collaboration with local English teachers. Volunteers are also encouraged to coordinate additional activities such as games, painting, and health education. Volunteers typically teach 3-4 hours a day for six days a week.

Highlights: Participants will receive an orientation after arriving in Thailand that will acquaint them with the culture, the program, and the surrounding area.

Activities:
To help participants learn more about Thai culture and integrate with the community, 30 hours of Thai language instruction is included for all programs of 4 weeks or longer.

For volunteers placed outside Bangkok, where the language school is not easily accessible, alternate language training options will be arranged. Volunteers placed outside Bangkok may receive less than 30 hours of training, for logistical reasons.

Qualifications: Volunteers must have: English language fluency, a desire to help the people of Thailand, flexibility, self-motivation, openness to a new culture and a willingness to learn.
