What visa type is the best fit for a 44-year-old planning a long-term stay in Thailand?

I've had many conversations with English teachers here in LOS, and the teaching of English as a Foreign Language bears little resemblance to the academic teaching we went thru on the average US, British school or univ. Basically, the teaching that we know is lecture based because all students are already fluent speakers. In the EFL environment, lectures are worthless because the students do not bring the language from their everyday life. Instead it is introduced by sound, pronunciation, listening, imitation, role playing, and a host of activities and tasks that replace the absence of childhood learning. Most of us do not remember how we learned to speak, but remember going to school already speaking. This is also the reason why the EFL teacher should not speak Thai to the students in or out of the school. It is the student's responsibility to learn English, not the teacher's to learn Thai. I had difficulty inderstanding this too. Hope this helps to clarify.
