Teaching Materials

[chiangrai]

Hi,

I'm going to try teaching english to kids in my back yard.

I need to get some lecture chairs,the ones with a small platform for writing.

Has anyone seen them in chiang rai,I hope I don'thave to go to chiang mai.

I also need a whiteboard and books by oxford university press.

I have to keep this chiang rai specific or the post will be moved,

so does anybody know where to buy.

1-lecture chairs in chiang rai/chiang mai

2-a white board in chiang rai/chiang mai

3-a good bookshop for ordering foreign made english teaching books.

Number 3 is hardly going to be chiang rai specific but I might get away with somebody sliping an address in bangkok in.I've tried kinokuniya and SE-ED books.

Thanks in advance

Depending on the ages you may be hard pressed to keep the kids in those chairs. My wife is volunteering at a local school and they are quite wild. Before you invest in all the paraphernalia why not just give it a go and add things as the need arrises.

Though their school material isn’t the greatest, if you start with that you will help them to perform better in school and get better grades which is a good way to motivate them.

Oh, you can also get free English-language lessons from those foreigners wearing white shirts and ties and ride bicycles. They usually travel in pairs.
