This is a great experience for anyone who is interested in teaching English as a second language. In the period we were there, holiday camps were running, so the classes were every week day, plus there were study groups in the WE. The pupils were very active and curious, so one needed to tap into all creative resources to find activities and games… read more

This was my first Workaway assignment teaching English. It was fun to say the least. Annie has been running this school for over 6 years and some of kids have been coming for about the same amount of time. Annie encouraged us to use your creativity with the kids to teach ways to learn English, so your experience will be valued. It was Halloween so… read more

I volunteered at Annie's school for a little over a month, staying a little longer than Austin – who posted a review on October 4th, 2023. We had similar experiences and impressions of the project, but whereas Austin focused more on video editing, most of the non-teaching work that I did focused on recreating exams to make them more legible and… read more presentable. This was a lot of work that kept me quite busy, so I am grateful that Annie gave me a chance to take on such responsibilities – especially right as she was about to acquire a volunteer from North America. I guess I was fortunate to have contacted Annie at a time when two volunteers were better suited for the workload than just one.

Despite being pretty busy, I still had time to explore the local area - especially during weekdays. There are a few temples in the area that I was able to visit, but walking around this part of Nonthaburi is not normal nor easy like it is in Bangkok. (Nonthaburi is a province that neighbors Bangkok, and although it is connected to Bangkok by the MRT/subway system, it is a lot more like a car-centric suburb than a city.)

If you're an adventurous person who likes to travel and explore places, here is my advice on getting around Nonthaburi and beyond:

1. Take the MRT to get to/from this part of Nonthaburi from Bangkok. Don't even think of taking a city bus, especiallyto go from Nonthaburi to Bangkok. One Saturday morning I tried to take a city bus into Bangkok so that I could travel with my friend, but I had to cancel my plans after waiting over an hour at the bus station and literally seeing zero buses. *

2. Keep an eye out for unleashed, unsupervised dogs while walking around. They are likely to make a lot of noise if you walk in their general direction, but the real danger is they may sneak up on you from behind and bite your heel or leg. If that happens, you'd best go to a hospital ASAP and get series of rabies shots. This is a big problem in much of Thailand outside of Bangkok, and Nonthaburi is no exception.

3. If you're going to change money rather than withdraw Thai Baht from an ATM and get ripped off with the crazy ATM fees that all Thai banks charge, be sure to visit money changing businesses in Bangkok before going to other parts of the country. Your best bet it to visit Super Rich and the handful of other money changers that are all within very short distance of each other near the CentralWorld shopping mall in Ratchathewei district. Some parts of Thailand have literally no money changing businesses, and the exchange rates that the banks will give you is even worse than paying the high fee they charge every time you use one of their ATMs.

I am a trained, professional teacher and am happy to say that I enjoyed working with most of the students attending Annie's school. Many of them are are highly motivated and have a good attitude toward learning cooperating with teachers. Much of the face-to-face time that volunteers spend with students a classroom is spent coaching them as they go through their own book at their own pace, not delivering once-size-fits-all lessons to all the students at the same time. This is in line with many of the principles of modern education, and I'm sure the students appreciate the individualized attention they receive.

I can read and write Thai, and some students were very excited to see that I could transliterate English words in Thai script for the sake of aiding their pronunciation.

Annie is kind and accommodating. She, her husband, and her son are friendly people. I found it easy to get along with them as well as their maid, who consistently prepared yummy dishes for volunteers as well as the family.

I love both Thai food and spicy food, and am happy with the food that was served. Despite being Thai, Annie is not very fond of spiciness, so most of the food will not be spicy unless you get something made spicy for you by special request. If you can't tolerate Asian food or are a very picky eater, you may prefer to join other projects unless you're okay with getting food for yourself.

* = Weekends are when you should expect a full schedule if you will volunteer when camp activities are not going on. In my case, I had made arrangements to end my participation in the project by the time that weekend came. However, Annie recognized the contributions I had made and invited me to take that weekend off and continue volunteering once I got back. Since I didn't end up going out of town that weekend, I returned to help with the weekend classes and continued volunteering for another few weeks. The point I'm making is that you should definitely talk to Annie about your plans if you want to volunteer but think you might be away during a weekend.
