Many young Cambodians looking for jobs get rejected because they speak very little or no English due to the fact that most parents simply cannot afford this type of education for their children. Our volunteers are placed in Phnom Penh and the surrounding communities. Many projects urgently need teachers who can help out with specific skills like English. Sometimes other skills (e.g. IT, mathematics or art) are also required. Volunteers will teach a whole class or small groups, working alone or alongside other teachers or volunteers. In some schools you will prepare tests and exams and even correct exams. The longer you stay the more responsibilities you receive. The volunteer should invest some time each day on preparing lessons carefully. A typical school year depends on the type of school. Orphanage and NGO schools run throughout the year and only have holidays during the public holidays. However, we work with a combination of schools (orphanage and NGO) and for most of the year, volunteers will be able to work in the schools without being affected by any long holidays. NB Volunteers DO NOT need to be a qualified or experienced teacher.
