Sitting on the floor of Wat Bang Nam Chon Temple School a few weeks ago, surrounded by excited young students, I was brought back to my early school days. As the children threw themselves heart and soul into the activities, I gazed around the classroom and soaked up the sense of wonder.
If you’re reading this blog, you’re probably filled with ambition. You have a passion for success. Walk into the business section of any bookstore and start scanning the shelves. You’ll find book after book touting the authors’ system, or process, or formula, or acronym for achieving success.

Moving to university is one of the biggest moments in a person’s life. This experience is a chance for a young adult to explore their interests and develop a sense of independence.

Active Learning for the 21st Century
Imagine a traditional, typical classroom setting. Conjure up the classroom in your mind. What do you see? Probably, it’s something like this… A lecturer stands in front of the class. Maybe the instructor has a chalkboard behind them. Perhaps it’s a white board or projector screen, but it’s the same idea. The lecturer stands in front of the class and talks. The students listen and take notes. Some of them struggle to stay awake. Maybe they watch the clock ticking.
Looking Back on Bangkok Riverside Fest 2023
Bangkok Riverside Fest 2023 drew to a triumphant close, having attracted a record number of attendees. One component of its success: the dedicated support of AIHM’s hard-working hospitality students coupled with the expert direction of Programme Lead Ishaan Dargan and teachers Gavin Tiffin and Tip Tirakanirunkul. AIHM’s student ambassadors wined and dined VIPs whilst showcasing the skills of exceptional customer service for special guests. They shared the latest trends in responsible hospitality at Sustainability Kiosks. Behind the scenes at the performance stages, they helped keep things running smoothly. At a variety of stations throughout the festival, students put their events management studies and newly acquired skills and knowledge of practical arts subjects into practice.
Elephant boats surge through the water as rowing teams race for the trophy. Local stars take to the concert stage. And AIHM’s talented students put their newfound skills and knowledge into practice as one of Bangkok’s most exciting annual events returns to the riverside.
