TLDR : Answer Summary

To study and teach English in Thailand concurrently, you would need a Non-B visa along with a work permit for teaching. It's important to note that while you can pursue studies on various types of visas, securing a job and the appropriate visa for work is essential.

Follow the advice Lloyd posted. Get a job, get the work permit and correct visa and then if you want to study go ahead and study.

Working trumps learning, you would need a Non-B and a work permit. You can study on any visa.
