Your trip Itinerary

When you arrive, our in-country team will greet you and the other interns (unless you must complete a quarantine). After the one-week orientation, you’ll travel to your placement area.

When you arrive, you’ll get a full week of cultural orientation.

Our in-depth culture and language orientation takes place in Phnom Penh and is a one-week, comprehensive, active learning, culture, history and language programme.

Workshops and activities include:

· Khmer language lessons
· Cambodian history, culture, geography and society
· Overcoming culture shock
· Cambodian cooking class
· Visit the Killing Fields and museum to learn about Cambodia’s past
· Market trips
· Visit a Buddhist temple to learn about religion in Cambodia

You will have the opportunity to teach in Cambodian language schools as well as private schools.
These two options may have different teaching hours. Language schools, for example, are busiest on Saturday and Sunday. Teachers teach on weekends and then take time off during the week. Private schools typically operate Monday through Friday, so teachers work during the week and are off on weekends. In both schools, you will primarily teach young students, but there are some high school positions available.

 

Congratulations, you did it! Be sure to congratulate yourself on your accomplishment. It’s time to choose whether you want to see more of Cambodia, travel, or teach (or both).

Alyssa

Hello! Alyssa is my name; I’m 22 years old and half German and half French. Hence, not a native English speaker. I began working in sales after completing my education in business. I did, however, recognize that there was still a lot to learn about this universe. Thus, I decided to apply for a TEFL internship in Cambodia, and here I am!

    I chose to complete the 180 hour level 5 TEFL course. This was a thorough and interesting course, which combined pedagogical good practice with practical teaching strategies. I would definitely recommend it to others.

    For a 10-hour course I considered it very insightful. Covered many topics and teaching techniques, with examples and practice. Feedback was given to us so we can be better. I felt really comfortable and Michelle helped us relax. All very clear and practical. Good guidance for the future in this field. Thank you very much.

    I recently completed the 180 hour Level 5 course and the 30hour Business English. Both courses are very thorough and supplies you with all you may need to be a TEFL teacher. Help is always only a click away and the chat box was also a tool that I found very useful. I would recommend this course to others. Thank you

    I have not had the opportunity to start my program, due to an illness and other situations that I am dealing with in my life. However, I must say that the representatives at the TEFL institute have been very attentive and informative. I received an email stating that I have 30 days left to complete my program and I spoke to Mr. Walter Cullinan about my situation. He listened to me and took the time to answer all of my questions, as well as made sure that I understood how the program would be beneficial to me. He was kind enough to leave me a contact number and told me that if I need any additional help or have any more questions that I can contact him. I am so grateful to him. He made my day.
