Great Experience

When I first saw the advert to teach English as a volunteer in Thailand, I was a bit apprehensive
because it meant that I would be arriving in a foreign country on my own. I need not have worried
because June the Volunteer Organiser met me and she was so friendly and quickly put me at ease.

We travelled to Surin the following day to the volunteer accommodation. The house is lovely, it's only
about three years old, very modern with lovely wet rooms. June the Volunteer Organiser only lives 3 minutes walk away. In the evening we would go to June's house or she would bring us home cooked
food. The food was lovely and June is an amazing cook. June did everything to make my trip as
worthwhile as possible and would take me out in the evening to sample the area's attractions.

Each day the volunteers would be driven to the school where we were teaching. The Director and
the teachers of the school made you feel most welcome and had great respect for you.
The teaching wasn't difficult and the children were most respectful. They really enjoyed the lessons
and the input from foreign teachers.

I would recommend volunteering to teach English to everyone. It's such a worthwhile experience and
I am so pleased that I did it and will never forget the wonderful children that I taught
