Work

Padang Besar mulnicipality is taking control 1 school and 3 kindergartens in Padang Besar sub-district, Sadao, Songkhla.

When the schools is not allowed to open volunteers will be supporter in teachers training to prepare the lesson with the teachers before school open.

Volunteers will prepare English study clips for online study and will teach them online following schedule of each schools.

When the school is allowed to open volunteers will follow the teaching schedule in each school, planing with teacher and make the conversation in the classes.

The goal of ICL project is to communicate in English with students, encourage them to use English with you. Because in Thailand less Thai English teacher can speak English well by culture barrier.

So volunteer will create the situation for student to use English in the class with non- formal education tools such as Song, Game, Creating English Situation in the class (for example market situation to let then learn more word or some conversation that could happen in the market), basic English in daily life, ect.

Volunteers can ask for equipment for lesson preparing from teacher in the school.
School and kindergarten atmosphere, Thai teacher could not speak English well (as well as children), be prepared on this, you may face difficulty of communication situation but international volunteers will be together. So at least you have friends who can communicate with you. But Thai people really easy going, like to support, help and keen to learn if you are open mind to teach them or communicate with them slowly by slowly.

This is new project.
