Activity Details
Overview
Naresuan University offers an immersive 3 to 4-month internship (ideally from mid-December to mid-March). Integrated into the French Section of the Department of Western Languages within the Faculty of Humanities, this internship provides a unique opportunity to collaborate closely with French teachers and Thai students majoring in French. The trainee will be asked to put their teaching knowledge into practice in a real teaching context, to strengthen the French language skills (especially oral skills) of Thai students in French as a Foreign Language, and to co-create intercultural teaching resources with their local counterparts.
