Ban Prang Mu School is a small school in Ban Prang Mu sub district, Phatthalung province, Southern Thailand. The school director, who shares our values, would like to welcome volunteers, to improve English skills for students to be able to communicate in this language. Volunteers can help to organize English lessons or other fun activities with the 126 students from kindergarten to Grade 6 (6-12 years old). The English skills of the students are very poor. They are not familiar with foreigners. You can experience the local way of life, exchange with other volunteers, villagers and support the children education.

Volunteers have their own house right behind the school. It’s big enough with outdoor space and a
garden area. There are 2 bedrooms with 2 beds each and a big living room and kitchen with cooking
equipment and a fridge. The sleeping material is provided. Volunteers can eat for free at the School
canteen for lunch (on School days) and cook at their house.
There is a small market early morning (6-7:30) by 10 minutes’ walk distance where they can buy
breakfast and fresh ingredients. Going to Pattalung city for further shopping needs a transport (about 7-10 km). The staff of the School can bring them once or twice a week to the city and to the
supermarket. Pattalung Bus station is about 4 kilometers away.

Volunteers should be able to stay in a remote environment, without public transport.
Volunteers should be able to take responsibility for themselves and the team by taking care of their
health and security and be fully involved in the daily tasks.
