Mountain Village - Day 1

This was our first whole day of teaching at the Bahn Mae Yang Hah school near Samoeng village.

Some of the team chose to teach from the front of the class and some chose to stay with specific classes. We taught grades 4 - 9 (years 5 -10 in the UK) different topics, and also played some games with the children over lunch.

This was great fun, and everyone enjoyed being with the children and seeing them pick up English despite our complete lack of Thai and relatively little experience!

As is was the first day of teaching, it was a steep learning curve in many respects. Trying to teach the difference between 'fan' and 'van' was a personal favourite on the difficult words to teach record.

It would e fair to say that the day was exhausting but the incredible scenery outside where we were staying more than made up for it. Lots of photos will follow I'm sure :)
