A True Story​

Message from our alumni James.​

In 2014, I was a camper for the OMP English Camp. The camp went super well, I got to meet many interesting and talented volunteers, also got to make a lot of new friends there. My mind got opened and filled with inspiration, motivation and curiosity in learning English, I.T. and well-living skills.

Share the same planet and the same smile!

It has been 3 consecutive years now that the family spends one week in a Lao village thanks to OpenmindProjects. Teaching, learning by doing, sharing, so emotional... we maybe haven’t the same life but we share the same planet and the same smile!

I improved my self-confident

The debates make me more confident. I learn English by searching, discussing, not by heart! First, the volunteers teach me and then we have to search and find information and discuss with our friends before we present the information.

10 Reasons Why Volunteers Matter to Teach English and IT/Digital Skills with a Non-profit NGO.

  • IT/digital skills are important for high demand jobs in Asia: Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and Nepal.
  • Poor students don’t know how to search and learn online. Volunteers can help them improve digital skills.
  • Volunteers in Asia can Inspire, help build confidence, practice speaking and searching online. It's better and more fun than learning by heart!
  • As a volunteer in Thailand you help teach English to underprivileged children while you gain valuable teaching experience.
  • Learning English with volunteers from abroad matters because speaking English means better job opportunities for poor youth, especially in the tourism sector in Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and Nepal.
  • Students in Thailand and Laos have a major problem because they are taught English by memorizing words and don’t practice speaking English so they lack the confidence to speak English and they don’t do well in international tests.
  • Volunteer to teach English to disadvantaged students and help them improve their English since that will open doors to better futures and jobs.
  • Make a direct difference to a teenager while you improve yourself.
  • You can also volunteer Online and web developers, designers, volunteers with IT, Internet or social media skills are welcome to help our nonprofit NGO.
  • More volunteers will help more children!
