Starfish Ventures has helped build
and develop schools and homes in
poor areas with the help of
volunteers. We need your help to
continue this work and make a

Teach

Volunteer Teaching Programs
Learning English is essential for
Thai children, a competence in both
written and spoken English opens
so many more doors later in life.
As a volunteer teacher, you’ll be
equipping these young people of the future with the skills they need to be successful. We also run teach and travel ventures specifically for qualified teachers over the summer holidays.
