TEFL Diploma
Due diligence
For those looking for employment in Thailand, please be forever mindful and exercise due diligence when applying for a position. Do your homework on the school you intend to apply for - a google search will reveal a great deal. If money is important, be wary of any school offering less than 30k bhat a month.
The min. for a degree holding teacher is 15k under thai law, and that’s difficult for a westerner to survive on.
Leave your western mindset at home, but don’t be taken for a ride - you are a precious resource to this country, but if they can get you for peanuts, you will regret.
good luck

Nile you make an extremely good point.
I can say the same about China any employer here offering less than 10k CNY a month isn’t likely to be a serious employer at all. There are a few universities here that aren’t allowed to offer more than say 4-5k for ESL positions however most of these should be able to let you essentially work 2 jobs at the same time making the overall package a lot more attractive as the working hours are usually really low for each position.
All the best,
David
