Hi guys. My name's Songsak Musikong but I'm widely known as 'Neung(chai)'.
I've been here at KNEP for three years. I used to come in and help
around the office if needed and would sometimes
join camps or do a
little teaching. Now that I'm here full time, I find myself much
busier. We're lucky here in that we have a great team of people in
our office, and along with the fantastic students, Kanlayanee is
just a great place to work. I spend most of my spare time fishing as I
find it very relaxing. |

working here at Kanlayanee since 2003. I have
many responsibilities here. As well as being a

financial affairs of the department and do other
general office duties. |

Hi, I'm Chumtang Jidachote and I'm the M3 social
studies teacher. I've been a teacher for over 10
years now and joined the Kanlayanee team 3 years
ago.
I really enjoy teaching here at Kanlayanee
because I have such wonderful co-workers and of
course, fantastic students! As a social studies
teacher I have travelled to a lot of different
countries to obviously gain more knowledge and
also I use my travelling as a way to gain
experience which in turn I can pass onto my
students. I love travelling and travel plays a
very big part in my life. I'm very happy to be

Hi! My name is Geraldine Daray but everyone
calls me Ajarn Gege. I was born and raised on
the Philippine Islands but have lived in
Thailand for 13 years. I have worked in Bangkok,
Ayutthaya, Prachinburi and for the last seven
years, since 2000, here in the EP of
Kanlayaneesithammarat School. I feel very
fortunate to be part of the EP and have and
still am thoroughly enjoying myself here. The
reasons I have enjoyed my stay so much are
varied; my fellow staff members, very helpful
colleagues and above all excellent students who
make me feel good even when I'm feeling low. |

My name is Daylene Doguiles. I’m
31 years old. I come from the Pearl of the
Orient Seas, the Philippine Islands. I am very
passionate about teaching! I’ve been teaching
for 10 years now and am still enjoying it. My
first job was as a computer teacher in the
Philippines. I have also worked as a teacher in
Khon Kaen and Yala. Now, I teach Science to M1
and M2 students here at Kanlayanee. It’s my 6th
year in NST and my 9th year in Thailand
altogether. I consider Nakhon as my second home.
I take pride in all students because they're all
very respectful and diligent. I am also glad to
have found good friends here who will be with me
through ups and downs. I love KNEP. |

Hi, my name is Beth and I'm one of the newest
recruits to the English Program. I'm a local
girl and an ex-student of the Kanlayanne English
Program too .... so I already knew some of my
colleagues because they were once my teachers!
After leaving Kanlayanee, I moved to Bangkok and
studied at Thammasat University and then once I
had gained my degree in Liberal Arts with a
major in English I was free to see the world. I
went back-packing around Vietnam and spent a lot
of time in the USA before returning to
Nakhonsithammarat and real life!

My name is Thomas Thomassen and I am now in my
eighth year here with the EP. The students we
have here are very good and they're willing to
study hard to achieve their goals. With a little
encouragement, they do try to use English as
much as they can and when they do, they make me
very proud indeed.
When I first arrived here I was the M2 English
teacher. Now my position has changed and I teach
computing and IT to all of the M1, M2, M3 and M4
students. |

Hi!
I first arrived in Thailand back in 2002 when myself and a
friend came for a holiday. It wasn't long after that that I once
again found myself on a flight back to a country that I had
fallen for. I was invited down to Nakhonsithammarat to visit a
friend working in the town. I was soon introduced to her boss
and before I knew it I was a teacher at a large secondary school
in Nakhonsithamarat. I worked there for 4 years teaching M4, 5 &
6 students which was very enjoyable but soon the time came to
move on and that is how I have ended up teaching at Kanlayanee.
Here I am the M2 Maths teacher, the M1 Science teacher. |

Hi,
my name is Ryan Opanasets, the M1 maths teacher.
I also teach conversational English to M4
students.
I hail
from
Braintree, Massachusetts in the USA. In 1997,
I graduated from Syracuse University in
Syracuse, New York. As
I was interested in living overseas, I earned a
TEFL certificate from the Boston Language
Institute in 2005. This helped me get my first
job in Thailand. I taught English, Math and
Science at Assumption College Ubon Ratchathani
for 2 years before coming to Nakhon Si Thammarat.
I hope to be a good citizen of this town and
discover the beautiful scenery nearby. |

Hi,
my name is David Bernard and I teach Maths to Mattayom 3
students and English to Mattayom 2 students. The pupils here are
really nice to teach, even if they can be a little noisy at
times. The thing that makes them good is their attitude Happy!
Teaching here in Thailand is very different from teaching in the
UK where I used to teach. The style here is a lot more relaxed
and the pace is slower. Quite a revelation, and a good one! I
completed a MSc in Information Security and Biometrics and I
also have a degree in Computer Science with a year in industry
along with a PGCE. |

sunny Scotland. This is my second year working
in Nakhon Si Thammarat and my first year working
for KNEP. I really like living in Nakhon Si
Thammarat. Last year I taught Pratom students,
so moving to a high school was a different but
rewarding experience.
I currently
teach Science the M3 and Core English to M2. I
enjoy teaching at Kanlayanee, the students and
the staff are very friendly and hardworking.

Hi,
I'm Luci. I am from Preston which is a city in the North West

fact that they will try their hardest and they always make me
feel proud . |
