Why do you need to pay for our School Experience Program?

Confused why you need to pay for enrolling in our School Experience program? It is because, for conducting the program, we at ACT do not receive any form of monetary aids from government or religious organisations, therefore, a project fee from our volunteers and interns is required so that we are able to provide for the costs essential to cover the expenditure of the program and provide you with the best possible quality experiences that you deserve. However, we always try our best to keep the fees minimal compared to some of the best volunteer and internship project fees offered throughout Asia.

Knowledge Tour in Thailand – Know about the country

Thailand, a major tourist location for people around the world, is a country that suits the taste of all from 8 to 80. Located in Southeast Asia, the country is situated on the coasts of the Andaman Sea and the Gulf of Thailand. With lip-smacking street food as well as varied cuisines in star rated restaurants, great climate, fascinating culture, magnificent mountains and wonderful beaches, Thailand has every reason to attract an avid traveller. Bangkok, the capital city of Thailand, is the one of the most visited and busiest tourist destinations in Asia, with a crowd that always seem to be bustling with life and enthusiasm.

Though most of the Thai people only know their language and are not well-conversed in English, this has not at all hampered tourism in the region. The Thais believe in sa-nuk (sense of fun) and live by it all through their life, spreading it even among those visiting and exploring this south-east Asian country. What makes Bangkok all the more inviting is its multi-faceted personality, as the city comprises of megamalls on one side along with 200- year-old village homes on the other. As you stay in Bangkok, you will be made to visit various educational institutes and volunteer for projects and various other related jobs and learn about the modern global teaching practices and approaches being practiced in institutions worldwide.

Full of knowledge and useful information, suggestion for lesson plan and ideas for support learning. The knowledge, as mother and "home" teacher was incomplete, after this course I'm feel more comfortable in these topics.

It was hard work but I learned a lot. Because of this it was well worth it and I am well on my way to succeeding in my goal to become an English teacher in Asia. Instead of being scared as I previously was, I am only a little bit nervous now that I have this experience under my belt.

It was a challenge for me as it been a long time since I had done any academic studying but the course was structured well overall as the course progressed I was relating more to what I was doing at school and implementing them and seeing results I could see my self-confidence growing thru the course.

The course was very informative and I really liked the fact that I could do the Work on my own time. That made less pressure and I could do my best work for the assignments.
