THE GREEN LION
💼 What the programme involves
You will be staying in one of the most beautiful natural areas of Thailand: Kaeng Krachan National Park. This park is well-known for its abundance in biodiversity and its wide variety of flora and fauna. It truly is a heaven for biologists and nature lovers. The Karen Tribe Teaching program takes place in local Karen Hill tribe villages close to the border with Myanmar.
In recent years, the government has placed a continued emphasis on the teaching of the English language. Despite this, English literacy rates in Thailand remain one of the lowest in Asia.
During the Karen Tribe Teaching program, you will assist the school by giving English language lessons to the children, as well as helping out with renovation and cleaning efforts. You are always welcome to arrange extra activities and games for the children, who love to swim in the nearby river. At the end a school day, you will help walk the kids back to their homes.
Besides the teaching program, there is a lot to see and explore in this beautiful location. As part of the program, we will take you to a local market and an outstanding waterfall, where you will be able to swim!
To experience the full potential of this program, it will help to be open minded, as well as willing to assist and understand the needs of the Karen people and culture.
