Descripción

Hi, my name is Gabriel. I'm 29 years old and I'm from Brazil.
I enjoy adventures and hiking in nature. I also love reading books, and currently I'm reading the Dune series.
A curious thing about me is that I used to go on vacation to my uncle's ranch, where I helped my cousin take of the horses.
I'm passionate about Math and Computer Science problems, and I enjoy meeting people from other countries, which inspires me to learn other languages and cultures.
I worked as Data Engineer for four years and recently decided to leave my job to travel and focus on my next career goal. While studying in Brazil, I also worked as a freelance cleaner and waiter to help support myself financially.
So far, I have visited New Zealand and Indonesia, and I plan to visit more countries.
My goal with volunteering is to learn new skills, exchange knowledge, and contribute wherever I can while continuing my studies.

Que habilidades tienes?

I am a native Portuguese speaker and I can speak English. I am a Software Engineer graduated from the 42 Network school and I worked as a Data Engineer for four years.
I often helped my father with home repairs, like leaking pipes and replacing parts of the roof.
I have also worked in cleaning and hospitality roles, including waiter positions, and I have experience with farm work. I am comfortable with physical tasks and don't mind hard work.
Although I do not have formal teaching experience, I would like to teach English or basic programming logic.

This it was my first experience as a volunteer, and as a English teacher. I stayed one month in Chiang Kham district teaching English for students between 12 and 17 age. I will split my feedback into three parts: first for the host, the second for the school, and the last with small tips for the next volunteers.

The host (Hani) is amazing; he … read more goes beyond expectations. The whole process was smooth and clear, without any doubts. If you would like to, you could meet him in Phayao and talked with him. He has a amazing life story.

The school is one of the biggest which you are going to find in Phayao province, and has a good structure. Everyone is really nice and polite. If you ask the teachers, they will help you with anything you need, about the classes and what to do outside the school. Most of your time you will help the teachers, especially they like you to pronounce English. In the last period, all volunteers give a class by themselves, but don’t worry, at this time, the students are tired, so they would enjoy more easy activities like speaking, listening or vocabulary games. The number of classes per day depends on the teachers, up to 4 classes per day, because they put their names in your schedule if needed. Some days, you can have a lot of free time.

This part I would like to dedicate to the next volunteers in Chiang Kham. Here are few small tips that will help improve your experience there.

If you want to rent a bike, ask the teachers, they will indicate someone, and if you do not know how to ride a bike, they will teach you. In Chiang Kham, you do not need to worry about driving licenses like in Chiang Mai or around Bangkok.

You can find a lot of nice coffee shops in the city. I personally like Dopa’s. It is five minutes down the school’s road, opens at 7 am, so you go there before classes start, and serves a delicious coffee. You should once go to the Magic Mount Coffee, it has this scenic view of the mountains, and if you come during winter, you will have the chance to see the mountains covered by fog, but you will need a bike because it is far away from Chiang Kham.

Down the school’s road, near the petrol station, you will find a restaurant in a small wood house. The food is delicious, and the owner is a very kind old lady who will be glad to speak Thai with you in case you are learning the language. Finally, if you have a bike, you can go to a lot of nice places like the Phu Sang National park, Phayao city, Chiang Rai etc.
