NK ENGLISH SCHOOL
NK English School offers free English classes to the children and young adults of Nong Khiaw and the surroundings areas.
Our main goal is to give the local community the opportunity to learn English for free. We currently hold English classes five afternoons per week with over 150 students registered.
The English courses take place from Monday to Friday and are divided into 4 groups, from 4:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Our students are aged from 5 to 18 years old.
Our English programs have been validated by the village's Ministry of Education.
They also have access to a library and have the opportunity to watch movies in English. On Saturdays, there is no class, but in the afternoon it's open house and students can come and play board games in English, encouraging them to practice reading, writing, and oral expression at the same time.
We have 2 local teachers who ensure Lao/English translation and vice versa, which ensures a better understanding for the students.
In addition, we are fortunate to welcome weekly, or monthly volunteers from all around the world, giving the children the incredible opportunity to learn and practice English with a member of another culture.
Our main goal is to provide an easy and comfortable environment for the students while learning, where they will never feel ashamed of trying or being wrong, so that they will gain confidence in themselves and their abilities.
