Thailand English Teaching Project 2012

นี่อาจจะไม่ใช่แหล่งฝึกงานสำหรับนักศึกษาไทย แต่เป็นเนื้อหาที่กระทรวงศึกษาธิการของเรา โดยความร่วมมือกับ The British Council ได้จัดโครงการ “Thailand English Teaching Project 2012” เพื่อส่งเสริมศักยภาพในด้านภาษาอังกฤษของนักเรียน นักศึกษาไทย ให้สามารถมีทักษะด้านภาษาบนเวทีนานาชาติ หวังว่านักเรียน นักศึกษา คงได้รับโอกาสดีๆ ในการพัฒนา ฝึกฝนภาษาอังกฤษ ได้อย่างคล่องแคล่ว กันนะครับ

The British Council, together with Thailand’s Ministry of Education, has launched the “Thailand English Teaching Project 2012”.  The project will bring UK undergraduates and recent graduates to support the teaching and learning of English in Thai schools.

The first 67 British volunteers will arrive in Bangkok on the weekend of 21st – 22nd July and take part in an induction programme on 23 and 24 July.  After this, they will leave to work as English Teaching Assistants in host schools around the country.  They will stay for an initial 8-week period until mid-September.

The project will support the skills development of Thai school pupils who face the future of an integrated ASEAN and a more internationally competitive global world in which English will be a basic skill.  For the UK volunteers, the project will help to develop more rounded and employable UK graduates with an international outlook.

Language Assistants will work together in the classroom with Thai teachers of English and support extra-curricular activities outside of classroom hours. They will bring British Council resources to the schools and use these to teach and motivate the learning of English. They will not replace Thai teachers of English, but complement and support their work.
