Qualified Nz Teacher Available In Chonburi

[Skylark2012]

I am a New Zealand qualified Primary Teacher with many years experience teaching in Thailand. I am planning to set up a very small school (of sorts) using English as the medium of instruction, on an eco-farm in Bang Phra, Chonburi Province. Basically I will be teaching my two sons (5 and 8 years old) using English first language programs and developing life skills based on programs like Habits of the Mind. Children will be working on holistic programs based at their own developmental levels. I am interested in 'unschooling' type concepts but still value the need for some types of structure.

If there anyone who lives in the Sri Racha, Bang Saen, Chonburi areas that might be interested in their child joining us, please contact me.

Remember you will need a work permit for such a project to say nothing of approval from the

Ministry of Education.

It might be worthwhile to contact padma (email edited out) she set something similar up in hua hin,based on a homeschool model encouraging freethinking,its a non profit school,and by all reports quite a successful schooling model,hopefully my son will be attending in about 7 years(hes only 12months a.t.m.)

Yes, I'm working on the legality side of this and although it may not be easy, I think it will be possible.

Thanks jingjoe8 I have contacted Padma and been to visit her school. I would highly recommend her school to people living in the Hua Hin area.
