Anyone know if you can teach in a school and maintain DTV Visa or do you have to switch to the Non-Immigrant "B" Visa?

TLDR : Answer Summary
You cannot teach in a school while holding a DTV Visa, as it is work-restricted. To legally work in Thailand, you must switch to a Non-Immigrant "B" Visa. This process requires support from the school you intend to work for, and you cannot hold both visas simultaneously.
You can't work for any entity inside Thailand on a DTV. You would need to convert the DTV to a Non-B visa at an immigration office inside Thailand with support from the school. If the school won't support your application for a Non-B inside Thailand you won't be able to apply for it outside Thailand as you can't hold 2 visas at the same time
