No you don't NEED to learn Thai to be a BETTER teacher (as you shouldn't really use it in the class per se....minimally if at all).

TEFL acronyms: http://www.esl-teaching.net/modules.php?na...=showpage&pid=2

Basically Thais learn English as a foreign language so TEFL is best here, but to be honest a TESL would be as readily accepted most of the time. They both fall under the heading of TESOL.

Jesus and you are going to teach??? Do you want to teach to enhance the life of a Thai or is it because you think you are in love with a prostitute?

Just at a glance you would make a perfect teacher here. You spell just like a Thai.

I left the grammar problems out though. I'll leave that to the Thais.
