If you are looking to volunteer in Siem Reap as a teacher for kids this is by far the best option!
They are a charity so there is no profit involved as with other operators in the area. I have seen where the money goes - new buildings, education, food, clothes, bedding etc for these kids. They are not just in it for the money, they really care.
When I checked out some of the others in Siem Reap they send volunteers to these places but that's where their support ends - Globalteer are also the cheapest so good news all round. Really friendly people working there too.
They take people for three months or even if you are in the area for a few days and want to help they will find a placement for you.
I did not volunteer with Globalteer but I spent some time with the founder Jim Elliot and his staff when I was in Siem Reap. I was interested in seeing his operation as an example of a 'values-based' business and I was very impressed with their work, their vision, their integrity and their dedication. Thumbs up from me.
