We’re Flattered!

Posted by on August 13th, 2011

One of the goals of Panigram Resort has always been to inspire others to develop socially and environmentally responsible projects. We aim to be a global leader in responsible hospitality and we are happy to see that we are already making an impact! We are delighted to learn that there is a new eco property being developed outside of Dhaka. While we wish that they hadn’t lifted the text for their brochure directly from our marketing materials, we do wish them the best of luck with their endeavor and hope that they too will make a positive impact on their host community.

Do You Want to Teach English in Bangladesh?

Posted by on July 20th, 2011

Are you an artist who wishes you had more time to hone your craft? Are you sick of the rat race and are looking for a quiet retreat? Have you just finished a career and want to give back? Is the idea of working on a river next to a pottery village appealing to you? Would you like to have mango trees in your office? If so, come to Panigram! We are currently looking for two instructors to teach our villagers English; friends and couples are encouraged to apply. We will host you in our lovely five bedroom house with a private garden, orchard, and pond in Jessore city. A maid will do your laundry, clean your home, make your bed, and cook three meals a day for you. You will be able to enjoy the beautiful countryside each day as your own rickshawala takes you to and from the project site.

While in Bangladesh you can take an excursion to the nearby Sundarban forest, a world heritage site, and local archaeological sites. You will also have ample opportunities to take boat rides on the river, fish, and bicycle. We are looking for native English speakers who will teach classes 4-5 hours a day, five days a week starting in October 2011.

Teach English in Bangladesh

This would be your office...
