Program Details

About the Focus
Our primary focus is for our volunteers to get as much time in the classroom as possible. Therefore, our program asks our volunteers to assist our local teachers with prepping for student activities and delivering lesson plans. There is no requirement for previous experience teaching in a formal classroom setting or teaching English.

With the partnership of our local teachers and real-life classroom experiences, naturally, you will learn how to interact with students, deliver lessons, and have fun. However, to make this a wholehearted expertise, we require a genuine love for new experiences, working with children, and assisting with community needs.

Volunteers can expect to spend their weekdays assisting our local teachers in the classroom during the day and their evenings and weekends exploring Siem Reap, the local village, resting or enjoying their free time.

Activities & Shift

About the Daily Schedule
We have a daily schedule planned out for you to ensure you make the most of your time at either location. On your arrival date, you will be given a tour of our school grounds and assigned one of the rooms at our homestay.

We also allow our volunteers to create schedules based on their preferences for teaching different age groups. We require all volunteers to assist in afternoon classes from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m., with the option to choose to help in morning classes from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. with our younger students or in the evening classes from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. with our young adults.

Our schedules are prepared weekly, and assignments for the 4-5 hour daily exchange are determined based on preferences and current needs. Breakfast will be served at 7:30 a.m., lunch will be served at 11:30 a.m., and dinner will be served family-style between 7:30 and 8:00.

Rules

About the Policy

Our Safeguarding and Code of Conduct policy outlines our approach to safeguarding and the code of conduct we expect all staff and community volunteers, teachers, and members to follow.
