Details
For this program, you’ll be based in the bustling capital city of Phnom Penh. The month begins with an orientation and training to prepare you for teaching and your new cultural context. For the next three weeks, your primary focus will be teaching English to Cambodian youth in a variety of settings. When you aren’t teaching, you’ll spend time lesson planning, studying the local language, and assisting long-term teachers. You’ll also have opportunities for cultural exploration throughout your time in Cambodia. If you’re interested in serving long-term with ELIC this program offers a good perspective on what life overseas looks like.
