Such a great experience to stay at Wat Phrai Phatthana monastery. Surrounded by Buddhist temples and roosters and living amongst the monks, nuns, and young monks was so peaceful. It was such a special occasion to meditate and have breakfast with the monks and nuns. the school will always hold a special place in my heart. It was such an honor to teach English to the young monks and all the kids who were so appreciative and respectful. So grateful for Channa & Nady who do an amazing job running the school. This organization is changing the lives of the school and making an impact for the future.

Such an incredible and rewarding experience!!! It was so amazing to be able to live and interact with the local the school while also helping to teach English at the school. The kids are AMAZING and it was honestly so so hard to say goodbye. If I didn't already have a flight back to my home country I would have stayed longer. If you want a true immersive experience that you can contribute to but also learn from, this is it!!!

I had an incredible time. It was a lot of fun teaching the kids. Besides teaching, there were many other great experiences. Meditating with the monks is fantastic, and the MuaTai with the local teenagers is also something you shouldn't miss. Being in a more rural area also gives you wonderful insights into the local nature and the lives of the people, like probably nowhere else! Channa is super sweet and helpful, and Nady's food was absolutely amazing. I highly recommend this to everyone!!

Our 18 days the school was truly unforgettable. It was a school holiday, so we got to spend a lot of time with the football boys. And we loved it. We got to focus them a lot, watch and support their games and had a ton of fun doing it. The kids are amazing. The same goes for the munks and local kids and people. Everyone is so welcoming and smiling. Channa has been so kind and awesome, and always spreads the joy.

Our volunteering the school was amazing. The team is like a family and everything they do for the local the school is to be appreciated. We were also celebrating Songkran with the school Siem reap school and traveling with the soccer team for a friendly match in Cambodia, it was an amazing experience. We would 100% recommend the experience.

Wow. The last month spent the school Thailand was nothing short of magical. Not only were my fellow volunteers incredible, but Channa, Nady, Savuth, and Savon were amazing. We were so welcomed into the greater the school and respected by all the locals. From the second I arrived, I experienced a cultural immersion like no other. I loved teaching all the different kids from the LPS team, Monks, and Kinders. Love you guys and thanks for everything. Can't wait to see you again soon.

The school Thailand was my first volunteer project and I couldn't have imagined a better one. The people I met there become so dear to me after just a short time that I found it hard to leave. The children are really great and it is easy to teach them even if you have no experience of teaching or are not an English professional. All in all, I felt very comfortable during my stay, which was mainly down to Channa and Nady, as they made sure that you felt completely looked after and very welcome. I would recommend the school Thailand to anyone who enjoys working with children and wants a warm environment!!!

My experience the school was more than amazing! From day one, I felt so welcomed by all the volunteers. The kindergarteners, monks, and football team were full of life and always had us laughing. Every day felt so rewarding teaching them! If you love working with children and want to experience authentic local life in beautiful Si Sa Ket, I couldn't recommend this place enough.

My stay the school Phraiphatthana was amazing! The kids are awsome and the lessons were fun every time! Not only the kids learned and made some real progress but also I for myself did. It gives you so much back to teach the kids and give them a better chance for a good job in future! Also you build up a real connection with them what makes it even harder to leave this place. Not to forget Channa and Nady who are outstanding hosts and make sure that you have an amazing experience on your stay. Thank you for everything✨️
