Ta Yang Learning home

Giving non-formal English classes at Baan Ta Yang School, evening classes at the project host’s place, and/or at the village mosque. Working stints as estimated will be 3-4 hours per day. Kids’ ages ranged from 3-15 years old. MAIN THEME OF THE PROJECT Creative Education: the first idea of Bang Leem is to give opportunities to local kids to learn English. He sees it an important tool for their future. Percentage of local kids’ language abilities is very low. They only know very basic words, few conversations like “How are you? “I am fine” “Thank you and you?” even if their verbal pronunciation is not really right. It reflects hard situations why quality of kids’ education in rural areas is still undeveloped. Bang Leem is now taking this project very seriously and wish that international volunteers can help support him. Therefore, he offers his place for which various activities to enhance learning process of the village kids to be organized by international volunteers, with support of the parents. That’s where the source of this “Learning Home” came from. Community Living: this would literally go along with this proverb “When in Rome, do as the Romans do”. By embedding yourself as a long-term volunteer being part of the village life, to solve your curiosity about our Thai culture though its Muslim community, we hope by living in the community of Baan Ta Yang, you will get deeply into our traditions that we live, learn and work together! Around his area, there’s a compact land that volunteers can grow their own vegetables. Non-chemical, self-sustainable agriculture is one of the aims the host and villagers are taking into consideration. And it also is our aim to spread this action “food autonomy”
