Sounds about right

I'm wandering if you have a work permit, because it's looking like you haven't gone through the Government process of getting a Teachers Lisc.

I'm no expert so will leave it to them

But from what I've read it is quite a process & have you been required to get a police clearance which is needed

In order to teach at a school (not a language center) in Thailand you must have either a Teacher's License or a waiver that will allow you to teach for 2 years without a Teacher's License.

 

You need a BEd or an MEd or a BA/BS + a one year certificate (PGCEi or Grad. Diploma in Teaching) or be a currently licensed teacher in your home country to get a Teacher's License.

 

Since most foreigners teaching in Thailand just have a BA/BS, most teachers are using the waivers.  The requirements for a waiver are listed on pages 2 & 3 of the pictures you posted:

1.  Copies of your BA/BS certified by your embassy along with a transcript.  (If your degree is not printed in English, you will probably need an official translation).

2.  A copy of your passport with a Non-immigrant B Visa that has at least 30 days validity left.

3.  If you are not from the US,UK,Australia,NZ, Canada or Ireland you will need to take the TOEIC test.  I don't remember the minimum score required.

4.  A copy of your contract with your school.

5.  A 1 inch picture that is not more than 6 months old.

 

Your school will have to take signed copies of all these documents and apply for the waiver for you.

Yes my agency also asked me 1 inch picture, Non B visa, TOEIC copy copy etc. So r they gonna apply for teaching waiver? What’s the different between teaching license and teaching waiver? Why I can’t apply for teaching license?

A waiver is an exemption from the licensing requirement, for those who can not qualify for a licence, or who are waiting for their licence application to be processed.  Out of curiosity, have you written a TOEIC ?
