    Overview
    This teaching program is offered at various schools, with our primary teaching placement being at a local public school in Luang Prabang. Here, you will have the opportunity to teach English to students between the ages of 10 and 25. The class size typically consists of 15-20 students with one teacher.

    Many schools in Laos are open to new teaching concepts and strategies, meaning you can share your own ideas and techniques that complement their existing teaching styles. You can create creative lesson plans that align with the syllabus and help students improve their English and general knowledge. One approach is to initiate discussions on various topics and encourage students to participate, thereby increasing their exposure to broader knowledge.

    You will spend around 3-4 hours per day teaching, with additional time to create lesson plans in accordance with the stipulated English Curriculum. This project is incredibly rewarding, and students are eager to learn from you while having fun in the process.

    Location
    Luang Prabang is a picturesque city situated in the northern region of Laos, known for its well-preserved traditional architecture and serene Buddhist temples. Wat Xieng Thong, Wat Mai, and Wat Visoun are some of the most famous temples in the city, offering stunning examples of traditional Lao architecture. The lively night market, where visitors can sample local street food and browse through a wide range of local handicrafts, is also a must-visit attraction. Additionally, the city is a great base for outdoor activities such as hiking, kayaking, and visiting the Kuang Si waterfalls, making it a well-rounded destination for travellers seeking cultural, natural, and culinary experiences.

    Project Tasks
    • Teach conversational English, basic grammar, aligning to the syllabus
    • Gain teaching experience, an invaluable life skill
    • Assist the local school staff with extra hands and get creative!

    If arriving outside the pickup times, you can either make your own way to the project (we will advise on how to do this) or you can book a private transfer for an additional fee.

    Unterkunft

    The accommodation is located on the main road of the world heritage town surrounded by a beautiful mountainous view next to the Mekong River. The accommodation is easy to reach the local night market, and the town centre, which is a few mins walk. Rooms are shared dorms with up to 4 people of single gender. Included are wifi, hot showers, air-con, fans, and a laundry facility at an extra cost.

    You can find simple groceries and beverages sold in two local restaurants located next to the accommodation. There are also shops and a local market located 3 minutes and 10 minutes away respectively, by foot. There is also a pharmacy and local clinic located less than 5km away.

    There is a lake-side makeshift restaurant just for us, where you can enjoy the evenings and order Western or Laotian food at reasonable prices.

    Private Room Upgrade: please contact us directly for options and pricing

    *Please note: Upgrade prices can change, so please check the price with us first

    Verpflegung

    We offer a variety of local Laotian dishes. Participants may find that the cuisine is quite different from what they are used to at home, as there are very few Western dishes served. Local dishes can sometimes be adapted to accommodate vegetarians but can be a bit challenging with other dietary restrictions. Please inform the local team of your specific needs and they will do their best. However, please consider that it may not be possible to meet those personal tastes or guidelines every day to your satisfaction. In instances like this, we do suggest, bringing some of your own items to supplement the food being served.

    In addition, 3 meals are provided every day of the program scheduled at 8am for Breakfast, 12pm for Lunch, and 6:00pm for Dinner and on weekends only brunch and dinner.
