Your volunteer experience begins when we meet you on arrival at Phnom Penh Airport. A relaxed 10-day orientation period will be followed by 11 weeks of teaching. Each semester includes up to 9 holidays, which will generally coincide with a Cambodian festival.

For the benefit of the school and our students, we accept volunteers for three months and only on our specific group starting dates only.

Requirements

• Aged 18+
• Cultural sensitivity and respect
• Fluent English (all nationalities welcome)
• For non-native English speakers, we do require teaching experience or certification

Teaching experience and/or qualifications are a great help in the classroom, but are not required for native English speakers.

All volunteers receive two days of teaching workshops run by previous volunteers to help them get started.

Please contact us if you would like information on TEFL & CELTA courses offered in south east Asia.

Since 2006 we have hosted more than 300 volunteers. Many love Cambodia and our program so much, they return for a 2nd, 3rd and even 4th semester!
