- Lead classroom based English teaching activities
- Build confidence and work towards a vision for positive change in local students’ education
You will be surrounded by a close-knit and friendly team who meet up regularly for social events.

Social Impact
Go Thailand offers a unique opportunity to make a positive social impact in ‘up-country’ Thailand.
Many of the students will not have had any experience of learning English with a fluent speaker. As such, it’s an exciting chance to help develop English language education, exchange ideas with local Thai teachers and give students the confidence they need to succeed in later life.
