The Experience

Volunteers are needed to help us teach English to kids in Cambodia’s countryside, by creating interactive lessons that help them improve their language abilities. A local teacher will assist you in the class, and you will have books and materials to teach, but you are free to create your courses. There are 3 class blocks a day (morning, afternoon, and evening), and you can choose the schedule you prefer. We have students from 7yo to 18 yo.

Unforgettable and rewarding experience. We felt truly supported by the school and the other teachers, their guidance and kindness made our work meaningful and enjoyable. This volunteer was also a chance to experience the daily life of a rural the school community. the school's family welcomed us with hospitality, always making sure we felt at home. Weekends offer plenty of amazing places to visit nearby, such as Angkor Wat, Phnom Kulen National Park and the floating village. I recommend this experience to anyone looking to make a positive impact while immersing themselves in the school village life.

I had an amazing experience volunteering at the school's school. Two weeks was definitely not enough time. The project is built with so much love, passion, and dedication to giving children in the village better access to the school. The family is incredibly welcoming, and the environment is meaningful, positive, and full of purpose. I loved being part of the school and would be happy to return in the future. Highly recommend this experience to anyone looking to contribute to a project that truly makes a difference.

I'm running out of words to describe how amazing this experience was, from the very first moment until the last. I'm deeply grateful to the school and her family for giving us this opportunity, for the delicious food, and for the warmth that made us feel at home. The young students are absolutely lovely: kind, respectful, and eager to learn. My girlfriend and I would have loved to stay longer. We truly experienced the peace and tranquility of the countryside. I 100% recommend it and hope more people can be part of this beautiful project.

Being a volunteer at the school's school has been a great experience. Him and his family are so kind, friendly and sweet. The accommodation is ok. The food is really good (Thank you Saivon 😁) The class is free for the school's children which is a good thing. Childrens are very sweet and respectful. Khmer teachers are helpful and very friendly as well. I couldn't expected better. I really recommend this school if you want to be an english teacher volunteer.

We feel truly fortunate to have had Lescoules volunteer teacher with us. She dedicated herself wholeheartedly to helping our students improve their English and showed a genuine passion for education. Lescoules a natural love for children and knows how to engage with them in a way that captures their attention and inspires learning.
During her stay with my family, she was always polite, kind, and willing to help. Her presence brought joy both to the classroom and to our home.
Thanks with Love

I stayed 10 days at the school and it was amazing. The classes are well programmed, and there is a the school teacher always helping. The food is very good and cooked by the family. You have time for yourself, time to be with the family and to explore the suroundings of the village. Good experience.
