Wisdom School

Our School is located in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. The vision of our school is to help the students grow both in gaining a high level of English and in life skill. Moreover, we educate them to know about virtues, social awareness, environment, leadership and also to develop the inner moral quality which is within us.

However, the school is looking for more volunteers to join and be parts of us to impact on Cambodian students. The volunteers can share about experience, culture, teaching English, workshop and so on. The students here are very friendly and adorable, and they also like to communicate with the foreigners as well. Each volunteers will be required to teach a maximum of 6 hours per day from Monday to Thursday.

There is much to say about Wisdom school and the programs it runs (be it volunteer or local teacher). As an international school, it adds to children's education via English (and Chinese) classes.

The idea of recruiting foreign volunteers to try their hand at teaching while at the same time exposing the local children to other cultures (and ideally improved pronunciation and language practice of course) makes this a win win scenario.

The program was well done. I fully recommend it

I was there two weeks and taught the small and middle aged kids. For me it was quite hard to structure the class also since I‘ve never been a teacher in a class before. Holy and Rami and the family we‘re welcoming but we didn’t spent a lot of time together. You will sleep in a shared room with both Rami and Holy and maybe another volunteer. The food is simple but good. The school is about 30min- 60min by tuktuk from the city centre so about 3€ one way. The bathrooms are shared by the whole school.

I had a great 5 weeks teaching English at Wisdom School. Holy, Ramy, and the whole family are so welcoming, and it was so great to get to know them over the course of my stay. I was able to meet lots of other volunteers from all round the world, interact with the local teachers, and spend loads of time with the kids. Would definitely recommend a month teaching here! 😁
