What are the work visa options for part-time teaching in Thailand, and how can I avoid stray dogs while traveling?

Question

Hi Nomads, anyone here who has experience or knowledge on the below areas, I would greatly appreciate your insights as I will be travelling to Thailand.
1. Work Visa Options: What types of work visas are available for teaching roles with a limited number of hours per week (e.g., 5 hours per week)
2. Are there opportunities for teaching software skills part-time, specifically as a software developer?
3. Teaching English: For those teaching English, what are the best practices for securing a work visa, and what qualifications are needed for part-time roles?
4. Teaching Entrepreneurship: Are there any programs or institutions looking for part-time entrepreneurship instructors?
5. Which cities or areas in Thailand don’t have or less stray dogs? (Where it’s safe to travel with a barking dog around other dogs)
If there are any specific resources, agencies, or contacts that could assist me, please feel free to share.
Thank you in advance for your help!

1) Work permit and visa not gonna happen with so few hours.

2) There sure are. But best bet is to do so remotely / online from Thailand, not by being employed by a Thai company.

3) Pretty straight forward. Find a school to hire you - they will help you with the documentation for work permit and work visa. But again, unlikely to happen part time with such few hours.

4) There are some institutions committed to that. Check out International College of Digital Innovation of Chiang Mai University as an example. But again full time at small wage preferred.

5) Try gated communities.
