Had a great experience here in one of their the organization schools. Come in with an open mind and you will learn a lot, live with cool volunteers and get to experience a beautiful country. The students are great :) Thanks Ms.Dang and Winyoo!

It was one of the greatest experiences of my life, living as local in the organization really helps to have the complete travelling experience. I strongly recommend to the volunteers to plan all their classes with anticipation, the kids love to learn with working material such as drawings and activitied already planned. It was a beautiful experience and I will love to come back and visit everyone

I didn't teach before. This experience was amazing, for the challenge and the contact with a different culture. I've learned so much with all people that I knew. The tai children are awesome :)) Mrs Dang is great, always helpful. Great experience!

It was an incredible experience. I would definitely recommend it to everyone that likes energetic children and love meeting new people, which in my case ... life time friends.

Teaching at the Muslim school was amazing. The kids are wild and misbehaved but hey, they're kids. Overall the teachers are so so nice and it was great to bong with the kids. As far as the program: Winyoo is basically non existent. When I showed up Winyoo stopped answering my messages. The only direction I received was from another volunteer who showed up later that night. There were sheets on some beds but not all, who know when they were cleaned. The kitchen was ok, not well stocked, I had to buy toilet paper and dish soap. The showers were cold. There is major room for improvement.

Good decision after my trip around Thailand. Dont expect it to be easy. Its only 2 hours but its not a easy task. Anyway, with energy and motivation you can da good job! Most of the kids have low level of english, so you want to teach them. But the problem is when you try to explain yourself in the organization they dont understand. Then is when you need to improvisate and make them understand you. Once they understand, they have fun and follow you. And if they are learning english much better! So prepare easy games to make them learn, and go ahead! The host is nice, and Ms.Dang is so nice!

Overall it was a good experience. My time with kids was awesome and I had an amazing experience with them! The organization, however, needs lots of improvements: communication and schedules were a challenge sometimes.

Overall the experience working in the school with the children was brilliant! It was extremely rewarding passing on the knowledge of my language to young students. I also feel that the organisation of the programme and the materials provided could be improved. If I had been informed there were limited recourses available I would have been happy to purchase them myself to make the experience for the students better. The location is also very difficult to find. With a few organisation improvements this programme would be amazing! It did not take away from the awesome time I had teaching!

What can I say about my two weeks at the organization Foundation? It was simply one of the best part of my time abroad. Ms. Dang was extremely kindy, always trying to help and to know if it was everything okay with the volunteers. Teach English to children was a big challenge that taught me a lot. Besides that, as an enthusiast of sports, I had the chance to play soccer with local kids who live next to the foundation. It was great to stay with them and to learn a little bit about Thai culture. I highly recommend this wonderful experience in the organization.
