Katie GibbonsTeach in Thailand Participant, June 2019 at Sriwittayapaknam, Nakhon Pathom
"My experience teaching in Thailand was hands down the best year of my life! I initially signed up to teach abroad for only one term, but ended up staying longer because I completely fell in love with the students, culture, and beauty of Thailand. Moving to Thailand was a big step out of my comfort zone, but all of the OEG staff was so welcoming and really eased my nerves upon arrival. I learned so much at orientation and ended up meeting some of my best friends along the way! I could not have done it without OEG. Living in Thailand was one of the most rewarding and amazing opportunities I have ever had. If you are even halfway considering it, I say go for it! You only regret the chances you didn’t take. I am sure you will appreciate the “mai pen rai” [don’t worry] way of living as much as I did. From the incredible food, kind people, and breathtaking scenery – it’s impossible to not fall in love with Thailand! "

“Teaching in Thailand was definitely an experience that has changed my life. I was in my placement for about a year, a very small town in Northeast Thailand, while there were definitely some struggles (for example that time I didn’t have any access to running water for about two weeks during a drought) I’ve learned so much from them and I wouldn’t have changed anything for the world.”

I have thoroughly enjoyed this trip. Sharing remarkable experiences in the UK with my group has been incredible, and I have felt warmly welcomed by everyone over the past month. I am deeply grateful for the laughter, conversations, and memories we have shared. Although some individuals may not have been fully prepared for the journey, this experience has been a valuable step in life for those stepping out of their comfort zones. Each experience has provided its own unique lesson.
