鉁 Gain hands-on teaching experience in a unique, student-led learning environment
鉁 Support students in developing English communication skills
鉁 Immerse themselves in Thai culture while working with underprivileged youth
Who We鈥檙e Looking For:
We welcome applications from education students, recent graduates, and certified teachers who are enthusiastic about teaching and open to new cultural experiences. Prior teaching experience is a plus but not required.
