The Experience

Sues-day! Are you looking for a meaningful way to immerse yourself in the rich culture of Cambodia? Here, education is the key to a better future and breaking the cycle of poverty. That's why we work tirelessly to provide free English classes to underprivileged children who would not have the opportunity to learn otherwise. Volunteering at our school is truly a remarkable experience for anyone who wants to make a positive impact.

The organization was the best volunteer experience I've ever had! I stayed there for 2 weeks, but wishing I had extra time bc I fell in love with the organization, khmer culture, community & kids. Sophara and Dalin are such great hosts, with an interesting background and inspiring story. I worked directly with Teacher Handsome, which I really enjoyed, but all the other teachers I met were great. The kids have an amazing English level, they are so cute, polite and interested on learning. the organization is so organized, I'm happy to see the great job they are doing. My room was so good and the food was yummy!

I was at the organization for 10 days and absolutely loved it. Sophara and Dalin are incredibly welcoming hosts and made me feel at home. All the teachers at the organization is dedicated to making a difference in the students' lives through education. I learnt a lot about local Cambodian culture.

The organization is well equipped. It has a lovely garden and a nice playground for the children to play in between lessons. The classrooms and library are well decorated with useful charts that the kids can use for learning. The teachers were all very friendly, creative and did their best to teach the students. The kids were lovely and well educated. The hosts were great. They provided us with daily good and varied meals. We all had a private room with a bathroom.
