Disgusting and makes you wonder about the school's recruitment policies. Not really sure that it's exclusively a problem with "westerners" though!

What teaching credentials are required to teach English in Thailand?

Henry *********

Being able to speak Thai is irrelevant in a multi-lingual class, which you'll get if you teach in an international school or a language institute. Even in a Thai school there should be a Thai assistant, so the foreign teacher being able to speak Thai (badly!) is more of a hindrance than a help.

Yes, assuming you mean TEFL. However here more emphasis is placed on having a degree (for the WP). TEFL in Europe and most other Asian countries place the emphasis on having a decent TEFL/TESOL qualification like a CELTA or Trinity.
