This experience was awesome! Hani was super helpful when it came to explaining the customs and culture of the locals. His witty humor and positive outlook really made me feel at home. As far as the organization goes, the staff were very friendly and the students were super excited to say hi. Our accommodations were good, and we were provided options for transportation. However, I would prepare lesson plans in advance since the organization doesn't offer much direction when it came to that. Overall, a great experience and it was a much needed break from the hustle and bustle of my own daily life!

This was a wonderful experience that truly allows you to connect with the kind presence of the locals and feel like you are living within Phayao. The students and staff are so welcoming, and it is great to create meaningful bonds with the children, and seeing them grasp small pieces of English is truly rewarding. They also share much of their culture and language with you as well. Hani was always available to reach out to with questions, makes you feel welcomed right away, and made the process go by very smoothly. There's also plenty of time to explore after the organization ends.

What an amazing experience! I stayed in Phayao for only one week, but I would have definitely stay longer if I hadn't been short on time. This was my first time teaching a large number of children, and I was surprised by how easy and enjoyable it was. All you need is some energy, a smile, genuine enthusiasm, and a willingness to teach even the simplest vocabulary, such as food or family, and the children become excited and eager to learn.
I am very grateful for this opportunity and would highly recommend this experience to anyone considering volunteering in Thailand!

It was an honor to volunteer here in Phayao. The directors were incredibly welcoming and generous, as well as very grateful for my time. They made sure I was comfortable everyday & had everything prepared before arriving. I was at a little adamant as it is a very rural part of northern Thailand, but immersing myself in this local village's culture was incredible and I would do it all over again if I could. Thank you, PEFF & Hani for the incredible opportunity! I highly recommend to any traveler(s) looking to make a difference in children's lives.
