Question to UK teachers in the group (if there are any....), or international teachers if there aren't.

Have any of you had success gaining a DTV working as an online teacher of English using a TEFL qualification through a UK based teaching agency?

Asking because that's one of the options for my wife and I in a couple of years once I retire from primary school teaching here in the UK, as the security deposit is lower than the retirement visa, and the DTV gives me options to top up the pension with a bit of income.

Any advice/opinions greatfully received. 👍👍

Good evening. English, over 55.

I'm hoping to move to Chiang Mai area in October/ November 2024. I already have TEFL qualification, level 3. In Chiang Mai I intend to then take level 5 TEFL. My intention is to teach English online and at language schools. I do not have a degree. Any advice on best visa to obtain initially and then when in Thailand gratefully received.

It’s seems you need to have a degree

to teach English in school in Thailand . Is TEFL qualification acceptable for private or online tuition in Thailand ?
