Beschreibung
Hello! My name is Sovannarith, and I am the founder and director of a children’s charity located in the countryside near Siem Reap (Lolei Village). I speak English and am committed to helping our children develop essential skills, with a strong focus on language learning (English, Chinese) and computer skills, to give them better opportunities for the future. I believe it’s crucial to help our children succeed. Additionally, I run a monthly food program to support poor and unable individuals in the community.
With additional funding, I hope to expand our reach and offer more lessons to more children. I’ve been running this NGO since 2011, but we are in need of volunteers to help the project grow. We warmly welcome anyone who would like to support or teach languages to the children. We are currently offering free education to about 80 children, ages 5 to 15.
We accept volunteers for both short-term and long-term stays (minimum of one week) are preferred. We would be happy to give you a tour of our school at any time.
As a volunteer, you will receive a certificate acknowledging your involvement with the school, which can serve as a reference for future teaching positions. Our school is also an ideal place for those with a TEFL certificate to practice their teaching and classroom management skills, but we welcome all volunteers—whether or not you have prior experience or a teaching certificate.
Please note: volunteers are not permitted to rent motorbikes or scooters to drive to the village due to local regulations and safety concerns, as there have been several accidents.
We warmly welcome all volunteers and look forward to meeting you! Please include your full name and exact volunteering dates in the subject line of your email.

Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten
As a volunteer, travelers will learn about Cambodia culture and customs, as well as have the opportunity to help children learn. Often, there are many students but not enough teachers. Volunteers can increase their overall teaching skills and have the perspective from being involved in teaching in an area where there is poverty. In addition, volunteers can learn how to fix and build homes, and know that families in need are being helped.
Projekte mit Kindern
Dieses Projekt schließt möglicherweise den Umgang mit Kindern ein. Mehr Informationen findest du in unseren Verhaltensregeln und Tipps hier.
Arbeit
If you are looking for a meaningful way to immerse yourself in Cambodian culture while making a real impact? Join us where you’ll take the lead in teaching English or Chinese to children aged 5 to 17, helping them develop essential language skills that can shape their future.
*What You’ll Do*
Teach English or Chinese in small, interactive classes.
Plan engaging lessons (all materials provided).
Help with the daily operations of the school.
Work with children of different levels, from beginners learning ABCs to students advancing in Grade 7.
Your Schedule
📅 Monday – Friday
⏰ Teach 3–5 classes per day
🕖 Morning: 7 AM – 10 AM
🕑 Afternoon: 2 PM – 4 PM
🌙 Evening: 6 PM – 7 PM
Weekends are free for you to explore Siem Reap and its surroundings!
Who Can Apply?
No prior teaching experience is needed—just passion, patience, and enthusiasm!
This is a great opportunity for those with a TEFL certificate to gain hands-on classroom experience.
We welcome both short-term and long-term volunteers (minimum 1 week preferred).
At the end of your stay, you’ll receive a certificate of recognition, which can serve as a reference for future teaching opportunities.
Join us and be part of something truly special—teaching, learning, and making a lasting impact in the lives of these children!
We are in need of up to 6 volunteers at a time for ideally at least one week (but will accept volunteers that can only come visit for the day) and as long as desired. We welcome volunteers that can speak any other language aside from English, web designer in Word press, other languages (Chinese, Korean, Italian, etc.) as there are tourists that come here to visit and speak those languages.

Englisch: Fließend
Khmer: Fließend
Chinesisch (Mandarin): FließendDieser Gastgeber bietet Sprachaustausch an
I and students would like to learn Chinese as well. We would like to teach Khmer language to Volunteers who wish to know some Khmer as well. Looking forward to sharing our language!
Unterkunft
Accommodation is provided in a homestay arrangement, where you will live with my family and experience authentic Cambodian life. You will also enjoy three meals a day prepared by my wife, along with access to water and internet. Room accommodations are dormitory-style, and you may share a room with other volunteers. Don’t worry—there are separate rooms for men, women, and couples.
The school is right next to our home, so there is no need for commuting.
Was noch ...
Volunteers can visit many of the wonderful sights around Siem Reap, including the Angkor temples, local markets, and nearby villages. With tourism being vibrant in the area, you’ll have the chance to meet people from all over the world and make new friends during your stay. Getting around Siem Reap is convenient with local tuk-tuks, and buses are available for trips to other cities like Phnom Penh.
We welcome both smokers and non-smokers, but please note that smoking is not permitted inside the house.
