I know NES teachers who work for less! Asian/ African/European Teachers who have a 12 months contract with 28 K as a salary also have 340 K per year. I guess the school pays more and that for 12 months, just check schools in Don Muang area. Another example why people should stay away from agencies, me thinks.

Happy Grumpy Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 22-45 yrs old, with a degree, accepting that... for 34k p/m, no wonder it's 'urgently required'. An American mate of mine does teaching online with Chinese students while here, does 5 hours a day 5 days a week from his living room and he said at around 700-750thb p/h makes around 80k p/m, with no BS to deal with.

moontang Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 By 45, you would be smart enough to know you would be working illegally. I'll bet that personal accident insurance has a real high maximum, too. Might even be 30,000 THB.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SheungWan Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 I guess a thread of this type is going to attract its fair share of wise guys. Goes with the territory. I am reminded of the UK types who won't take a lower paid job because the net pay is not much more than what they would receive anyway from the State on social benefits so they will prefer to sit at home.

Briggsy Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 This is a genuine post. When I started teaching in Bangkok around 1997, the standard pay for working in a school (as opposed to a language school, corporate training, private teaching, etc. ) was 34,000 Baht. In 2018, it is still 34,000 Baht! And you know what you will still definitely find somebody but they won't have all the 9 criteria listed. (why is no. 7 secret?)

Assuming that one is actually interested in the job or something similar and is 46 or thereabouts, better to submit one's CV plus a covering letter re energy, enthusiasm etc requesting a pre-interview with the agent/school to show such.

I guarantee that plenty of native English speakers will work for that in Bangkok. However, they won't meet all the other criteria on the list and the majority of them won't last the 10 months. Not a problem, plenty more to take their place. In fact the agent has probably already lined somebody up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
