Brainstorm Homeschool

My project focuses on teaching English to Thai people, with an emphasis on empowering them to confidently engage in conversations with foreigners. The primary goal is to build confidence in using English, enabling Thais to exchange ideas, perspectives, and cultural knowledge with volunteers. This exchange takes place through conversations in English, fostering mutual understanding and cultural appreciation. Additionally, volunteers have the opportunity to stay in Chiang Mai at my home, which is nestled in a garden-like setting. This offers a serene and ideal environment for relaxation and cultural immersion in Thailand. The project not only enhances language skills but also bridges cultural gaps, creating a meaningful and enriching experience for both Thai participants and international volunteers.


"Our home welcomes both native and non-native English speakers to teach the language. If you are confident in your ability to engage, converse, and connect with others, this is the right position for you. You will find joy in traveling while making your journey meaningful to your students."

What we exchange with our volunteers:
1. Teaching techniques. If you are already a teacher we can share our experiences.
2. Exploring the local Chaiangmai areas (hot springs, caves, mountains, markets, waterfalls) during free time.
3. Eating local and traditional Thai food both at the school and around the area.
4. Teaching volunteers how to cook by using different techniques. Some dishes I have taught before to volunteers are: honey toast, green curry, shabu shabu, tom yum soup, padthai, papaya salad etc.
5. Meet local people around Chaingmai. They are always eager to get to know volunteers because they don’t see a lot of foreigners.

we are family just 3 people in our family and I am a teacher who works with Government. We live in the downtown where agriculture part of Thailand. At my home, we focus on exchanging accommodation and Thai food. If you come and have any specific activities you would like to do, please let us know." The work I need volunteers to help with is in the evening. You will have free time to explore and travel all day........

The photos in the listing are ai generated The actual place looks nothing like it. While the work itself was fun and rewarding I ended up leaving early because I felt like the listing was a lie. The location on world packers isn't true (they really are about 40 minutes away) and the pictures are fake. The bed they gave me was really a box spring not a mattress and there was nothing to do during the day. Overall the experience would have been much better if I knew what to expect. If you want a chill relaxing experience then by all means apply but dont expect anything like you see in the picture

My first Worldpackers experience was amazing! 🌿 The place is peaceful, surrounded by nature, and far away from the hustle and bustle of city life. I volunteered as an English teacher and met wonderful people from different countries, learning about their cultures and experiences. The staff, manager, owner, and cook were all incredibly kind and helpful. The food was great, and the Saturday night parties were lots of fun! Overall, I loved every bit of my stay and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a beautiful, peaceful, and memorable experience. ❤️

This is my second visit to Ban Bon Doi and it certainly didn't disappoint! I previously came in March and even since then they've done some amazing upgrades to make the accommodation even more comfortable and the lessons easier to follow for anyone who has never taught before. The stand out here is the incredible staff and owner Ping Pong who just make you feel like family. This volunteering attracts the best travellers too. I can't recommend it enough. I'll have to come back a third time!
