Thousands of tourists travel to the country every year making Thailand one of the most popular tourist locations in the world. Despite this fact, most Thai people have limited English speaking skills.

Your presence in the classroom helps to fulfil the demand of the community to help school children gain skills that can assist their success in education and personal development.
