Adult Literacy Schools/courses (Khmer)

Ask us anything. Cambodia Expats Online has a huge community of long-term expats that can answer any question you may have about life in Cambodia. Have some questions you want to ask before you move to Cambodia? Ask them here. Our community can also answer any questions you have about how to find a job or what kind of work is available for expats in Cambodia, whether you're looking for info about Phnom Penh, Siem Reap, or anywhere else in the Kingdom. You're also welcome to ask about visa and work permit questions as well, as the immigration rules change often, especially since COVID-19. Don't be shy, ask CEO's community anything!

A lot of my khmer friends in Sihanouk can now speak Chinese Image

Contact your local Provincial Office of Education. All of them run literacy courses for adults and they're supposed to be free.
Addition: office of non formal education. Present in every POE.

Whilst the OP question was specific to learning Khmer, and I responded with an outline to the BEEP - Basic Education Equivalency Programme, - expanding a little on the BEEP may well be of assistance to others seeking a broader approach to adult remedial education for a Cambodian.

The Cambodian BEEP programme is designed to give adults with no or very "patchy" education the equivalent educational outcome that they would have received if they had completed all school grades/years 6 through to 9.

The BEEP programme comprises Khmer - Maths 1 and Maths 2 - English - ICT Information and Communications Technology - Entrepreneurship - Tourism - Chemistry - Physics - Gender and Basic Employability.

Unfortunately, there are only BEEP Centres in Phnom Penh and Siem Reap but they are needed in other parts of the country too.

I trust that this is of interest and assistance to some others.
