    Description

    Hello there! Welcome to the family. As a family, we are the proud owners of a private school, and we absolutely adore working with kids. In fact, we love it so much that we've even set up several play and karaoke rooms for our students and guests to enjoy!

    During the day, we spend our time working with teachers and managing the school to ensure that our students are receiving the best possible education. But we also know that it's important to have fun and exciting English activities for our students. That's why we would love for you help us teaching students with our Thai and foreign teachers.

    We have a great team of about 30 local staff members. They're awesome and help us run the school smoothly. We believe in taking care of our staff by providing fair compensation and professional development opportunities.

    In your free time, you can take a walk at the back of our school, where there's a large field surrounded by nature. Also, you can relax by the private swimming pool at the treehouse. The treehouse also boasts a karaoke room you can use. And if fishing is your thing, we have a large pond stocked for Thai-style fishing!

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    You'll have the amazing opportunity to learn about Thai culture directly from the locals and even get to learn some Thai words from the adorable kiddos here.

    We've got some exciting plans for you, including a visit to a local sheep and elephant village (not the touristy ones, mind you) where you'll get to experience the true essence of Thai culture. Also, Thai north eastern food is absolutely delicious, and we're sure you'll love it. Don't worry if you're not a fan of spicy food, we can tone down the heat for you.

    Help

    As a part of our school family, you'll have the chance to work with students of all ages in different classes to help teaching English that will help them with their communication skills. We are looking for people who are fluent in English that can help our shy students open their mouths to speak English! We generally ask for 4-5 hours of help a day, making some conversations with our students. You’ll be teaching alongside another main teacher, so no need to worry—you won’t be in the classroom alone!

    What else ...

    If you’re feeling a bit adventurous, you can explore the nearby provinces—there are so many hidden gems, from historic sites to beautiful old architecture. But honestly, even if you stay in Buriram, you won’t run out of things to do.

    One of the highlights is Phanom Rung Historical Park, a stunning ancient temple filled with rich history and incredible views. You can also visit Buriram’s famous football and racing stadiums—perfect if you enjoy sports or just want to experience the local energy. And don’t worry about getting around—we’re happy to drop you off at the bus station and pick you up after your trip.

    During your downtime, you can relax and enjoy the school environment too. There’s a refreshing swimming pool at our treehouse-style space at the back of the school, or you can unwind with a fun game of pool. It’s a really nice balance of activity and chill—you’ll definitely have a great time here.

    We’ll also take you on a short trip or local tour every weekend (Saturday or Sunday), so you’ll get to experience something new regularly.

    Here are some of the options you can experience while you’re here:

    1. Visit Phanom Rung Historical Park (once a month)
    2. Explore Buriram’s football and racing stadiums
    3. Visit a local elephant village (not a sanctuary) (once a month)
    4. Experience local culture, including traditional mat weaving and silk making
    5. Visit temples and take part in Thai merit-making traditions
    6. Explore Khao Kradong Forest Park (a small volcanic hill), plus shopping malls in Buriram

    It’s a great mix of culture, nature, and local experiences. You’ll get to see a really authentic side of Thailand while you’re here.
