Teaching English in Na Chueak, Thailand via INTVS
About Program
Join INTVS and volunteer abroad in Na Chueak, Thailand! Our local contact is a Thai woman who works at the local school as head of the English department. She has been receiving volunteers since nearly 10 years now and has built extra volunteer accommodation on the same grounds of her house.
The volunteers stay at her camp and teach children from the local primary and secondary school. Some people from the surrounding rural area that cannot afford paying classes come to join the English classes as well. Volunteers assist local teachers in managing their classes. Lessons consist of simple grammar and vocabulary and English songs and games for the younger children. And a more advanced level of grammar and vocabulary teaching for the older children.
The program was also created with the goal to promote voluntary service as a way of cultural and educational exchange among people. A lot of the volunteers learn local cooking, local dance and local Thai silk weaving.
