Descrição
Hi, I’m Phoebe!

I am outdoorsy, I love nature and hiking. I have lots of experience working in education, so I’m great with children. I love learning about different cultures to my own, and there is no better way than being utterly immersed in the culture!

Deixado pelo Workawayer () para o anfitrião (Create a multicultural ...)

The host, Excellence, and his family are extremely kind and generous people. You can learn a lot from Excellence about his vision for the school - and the wider village - and his experience working for 20 years in an NGO. I spent many evenings talking with the family and listening to their stories. Their two sons are very sweet and funny - they… read more taught me a lot about Cambodian history, and wanted to discuss English football players at great lengths! During the three weeks I spent there, I felt very welcomed and comfortable staying with such kind people. The family live on school property, so I felt very much immersed in the community. There are two full-time teachers that also live on school property who are so warm, welcoming, helpful, and positive; on one of the weekends I spent there, we took the older students on a school trip, swimming in a waterfall and picking Rambutan on a fruit farm... this was such a highlight for me! I worked 6 hours a day: 2 in the morning, 2 in the afternoon, and 2 in the evening. The students of the school are genuinely the most enthusiastic, friendly, warmhearted, and well-behaved students I have ever worked with. They are all very open to learning English. In many lessons that I taught or assisted with, I could feel their passion and commitment to the subject. The school provides lessons to a wide range of ages, from approximately 2 to 17 years old, and I taught the full range of ages and abilities: in some lessons I was singing and dancing 'wheels on the bus', and in others I was teaching more complex grammar structures. If you are coming here to teach, in most cases, and especially at the start, the main Cambodian teachers will give you a lot of guidance in how they usually teach their lessons, so I followed their lead in most cases, but was also given the freedom to teach in my own way on many occasions as well. I feel very lucky to have had such a positive and worthwhile experience volunteering at this school, and would recommend any one to come and stay here!

In terms of my own comfort: I was provided with three delicious meals a day, plus free access to water, soda, coffee and snacks. I had full internet access. If you can ride semi-automatic motorbikes, you can borrow theirs. The room is super comfortable and practical, with a fan and mosquito net. The family were also very helpful in organising transport to and from Battambang city, Phnom Penh and Siem Reap.

(Excelente)
