Discover Laos’ ancient city of Luang Prabang, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and teach English to Buddhist Novice Monks and local lay students, both children and young adults, increasing quality and access to education, enabling them to increase their future employment opportunities and improving quality of life for themselves, their families and communities. Visit local sites such as the Mekong river, beautiful waterfalls and breath-taking mountains in your spare time.

Volunteers will teach English to novice Buddhist Monks as well as to community members.  It is important to know that you will not solely be working with the monks, you will plan and conduct English lessons to a range of student groups at local schools and colleges.

This program goes on for either 2, 3, 4, 6 or 8 weeks. Contact us for more details.
