Primary Schools

- Pak Suay School - located in Ban Pak Suay, also know as Banana Village

This is Pak Suay School, a primary school with about 200 children. The school is about 10 kilometers away from the home stay. When you are going to volunteer here, you'll be working together with Miss Apissara Apaiprom, Kruu Aiew (teacher Aiew). She will help you getting to know the children and guides you about teaching.

The school is located on the banks of the Mekong River. While teaching you can overlook the river. Just outside of the school local villagers sell fresh sweet corn and in the village the sell lots of bananas.

This is Wat Luang School, a bike ride away from the home stay. It's a small school with approximately 150 children.

While teaching you'll have a great view over the Mekong River, not that you'll have much time to do that, because the kids will make sure that they have your attention!

-Napeing Noi School- located in Ban Napeing Noi, in the country side of Phonphisai

This is Napeing Noi School, deep into the country side of Phonphisai. The drive to the school brings you through lots of rice fields. The school has about 100 children. The teacher Mrs. Chulawan Jaycee Chaibhibarn, Kruu Joy (teacher Joy) is very happy with volunteers coming to her school because most of the children had never seen a foreigner, let alone a foreign teacher!

If you want to read how volunteers liked the country side school, read Daans, Coosje's and Yvonne's story.

-Ban Kok School- located in Ban Kohk, which means the village on the high hill

This school is in the little villages of Ban Kohk (not to be confused with the big, busy capital of Bangkok). The class are very small, 15 -20 children, so the volunteers can spend a lot of time with every individual.

This school has no qualified English teacher so there is a big need for volunteers. The children are very happy to see volunteers come because for them it means a opportunity to speak English, play games and sing songs.
