Right now Thai unemployment at an all time high.
Not a good idea to compete with a Thai for a job. Best have a company that wants employees. Thais will thank you.

@Paul ******
You dont even require a qualification to teach English...the only requirement is you speak English!

@David ******
It's not that easy. To work legally as a teacher you need a bachelor's degree.Paul *******
@David ******
I understand that you need a degree to obtain a work permit to work legally as a teacher in Thailand.David *******
@Paul ******
The school will sponser your work permit without the need for a degree! Sammy *******
@Paul ******
you are correct, and for top flight international schools in bkk, for example, they may well require more-- not just a degree in any old thing, but a degree specific to the subject taught and previous teaching experience. I have several friends working at ISB and a other at Pattana. some, again, think to the many years ago, when just speaking English was enough-well that day has passed. Yes, maybe, and often illegally without work permit, and for very low salary, one might find an English teacher job in a distant rural school.

unfortunately, many wanting to work here haven't done much research as to what, in reality, the very limited options are.Activity
