I'm retired in Jomtien, and may move to Hua Hin when my lease expires. I'd consider this. I'm not degreed, and my U.S high school closed decades ago (no transcripts, can't find diploma) . In the U.S I coached, taught after-school writing clubs, wrote four books, taught writing as a continuing education course to adults
From my understanding the top schools in Bangkok want those who have a Bachelor's Degree in Education or English and a teaching license from their home country. Many of the major schools prefer teachers from the United States or United Kingdom. It is actually pretty hard to get into the elite schools in Bangkok. A lot of them want teachers that have experience teaching at least at one or two schools in the past with good reference from old principal. There is also other options which is get a TEFL then teach online or at a less premier school, which of course will be much lower salary. Salaries for English teachers I have seen as high as $5,000 per month to as low as $500 per month. Pretty big range depending on qualifications. Also don't take this comment as negative, just telling you the realities of the English teaching path in Thailand.
@@THAILANDCLIPS Understood. It's just for kicks and giggles, to see if I garner any response, as a means of augmenting my U.S. Social Security. I taught youth in the U.S. But I'm more interested in teaching English independently, under contract to hotel staff, government employees, a military academy, or individual Thais willing to pay.
There aren't any native English speaking teachers because Thai schools refuse to process non-Immigrant B visas for them. That means NES teachers keep rotating out every 30-90 days - all backpacker, transient 'teachers.' Instead, Thai schools hire Filipinos who work for peanuts and have horrible pronunciation, but they are excellent at ingratiating themselves with Thai school administrators.
We are discussing teaching english in Thailand as a full time job.
