Volunteering with GM English Hub in Naouane Village was the highlight of my gap year. The team in Luang Prabang prepared us thoroughly and the village welcome was unforgettable.
Volunteer in Rural Laos
Teach. Explore. Belong.
Co-teach English in village classrooms by morning. Farm, ride and live with a Lao host family by afternoon. A real program — not a tourist trip.

📍 Naouane Village, Luang Prabang
🤝 Co-teach with Lao educators
The idea
Real English in real villages — with real adventure.

My son improved his English dramatically after one term. Teachers understand Lao village life and treat every child with respect.
Professional organisation, safe homestay in Luang Prabang Province, and meaningful classroom time. Highly recommend for serious volunteers.
