*️️️️*️️️️UPDATE*️️️️*️️️️
We are now looking for both English speakers and Chinese speakers to teach the kid and adult students. We need this help ASAP, so write us if you have the knowledge and skills you would like to share!! :)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~We are a small local English school. Suy started the School with little budget working with his wife and managed to keep very high quality classes for the kids from the neighborhood to learn and grow. The school now has grown more and we would like to expand and improve our programs by inviting native English teachers to come join our family running high standard English classes. We are open to new ideas from our volunteers in term of how to run good English classes and we need more activities for the children including art and creative workshops. We also would like to have some game activities in the classroom if that is something you would like to share with our staff and our children.Types of help and learning opportunities
Art ProjectsLanguage practiceTeachingBabysitting and creative playCultural exchange and learning opportunities
By working with us, you will be able to provide and improve the educational system in our neighborhood. In addition, you will be able to learn about Cambodian culture through Suy's family by getting the chance to join family dinners etc.
Our school is located very close to a local market where our volunteers can get all types of local Cambodian food and fresh tropical fruit. Suy's mother in law owns a clothes shop in that market. She would be more than happy to have visitors at the store often. While visiting her, volunteers will be able to have interaction with other shop owners who would be very excited to see you and to say hello to you. One of the family members will be able to assist volunteers in the local market with any type of shopping. Just ask us about it! :)
Our School is located 10 minutes from the airport and 20 minutes away from the capital city of Cambodia, Phnom Penh. During free time and weekends, our volunteers can easily go and explore the city where they will get to see the nightlife and the modernization of the capital city. There are also a few historical sites in the city to visit such as the S-21 museum, the killing field and the Royal Palace. Either Suy or one of his family members would be able to assist you or join you to the city if needed.
Last but not lease, (if you decide to stay long term with us) occasionally you will be invited to go and visit Suy's family in law who live in Kandal Province, the low land of the Cambodia. It is where the Mekong rivers passes which creates a beautiful countryside landscape and rich land for the farmers. This special trip can also happen on national and traditional holiday time so if volunteers happen to stay with us during one of these holidays, they would be invited to join the trip to the river town. :)Projects involving children

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We are looking for both Native and nonnative English speakers who have creative ideas to teach English classes as well as run some fun and creative workshops. We also would like to have more game activities for our children. We welcome our volunteers to discuss with us what skills they have and what they would feel comfortable doing. We are very excited to work with you and to support you in every way possible to make the program run smoothly.
Suy will be working with volunteers directly in term of discussing the classroom plans and he will be able to assist volunteers in the classroom from time to time. He will also be able to share with volunteers his teaching experiences and classroom management skills if that is something they are interested in.
We would love it if our volunteers can lead the class by themselves but we are also able to have one assistant working with them if needed.
We charge our students a reasonable amount of fee so that Suy and his family can continue running the school and supporting our volunteers' stay.Languages spoken
English: Fluent
Chinese (Mandarin): FluentAccommodation
Volunteers will live in a private room with an air conditioner (AC) in the school. The room has its own bathroom. The school is close to a local market and a Buddhist temple, where one can easily walk to and explore.

We offer to pick you up from the airport or in the city center if needed. Any questions, feel free to let us you. :)

Was teaching Chinese, students are friendly and eager to learn. Most of them have basic Chinese skills already so not very hard to teach. Some students are very engaging and do ask lots of questions.
They have no professional/native Chinese… read more
