The Experience

My children are between the ages of 5 and 18. They are from the surrounding villages. I have over 150 students. My children are very well-behaved. They have many different levels of learning. Many children here have never been taught English. I’m not looking for an expert English teacher. I am looking for someone who has love to share so they can connect with the children.

I had a very positive & rewarding experience at the school. The children (and their parents) are incredibly warm, friendly & open, which creates a very pleasant atmosphere. The support on site is well organized - you feel very welcomed & supported throughout your stay. For future volunteers, it may be helpful to know: You may be the only volunteer on site - which means teaching 15–30 students between 5 and 14 years at the same time, without a fixed curriculum. This can be challenging and tiring over time. Be prepared to plan lessons independently & adapt them to the students needs.

It was wonderful to be part of this project! I was warmly welcomed by the team, the children, and the community; everyone was very helpful and attentive to what was needed. The space is simple, but the people there make it special. Teaching English is a major challenge, given the mix of children and adolescents at various proficiency levels; it requires creativity and flexibility in lesson planning. I see this as a great opportunity—not only to teach English but also to learn about the culture and life itself. I am grateful to everyone!

It was my first volunteering experience with Worldpackers. Teaching English to Thai students was absolutely fun and rewarding at the same time. Keeping them engaged for four hours required some preparation, but with a bit of creativity, it was definitely possible. It was also great meeting volunteers from different countries and sharing the experience together. I'd happily do it again.

My experience at the school Guesthouse was very nice. the school showed us around in the area and made a lot of time for us. Zuag, the assistent of the school, was so nice and she made some lovely food for us. Teaching the children was great as they were interested and respectfull. The place itself is very peacefull and walking distance from shops. You can also use the scooter. Would really recommend! Thank you for everything.

My Stay at Nadines House felt way shorter than 2 weeks :) Even though the school couldn't be in Thailand for my stay, Tsong and everyone else in the village was extremely kind and welcoming. The village itself is very small and peaceful and you can always do day trips to Chiang Mai or relax there in your free time. Working with the children was such an amazing experience. They are all so polite and sweet, which made it very fun to teach them! You definitely have to be a bit creative planning your lessons and properly engaging them but it's definitely doable. I would recommend this to everyone :)
