But I always told them to use words they felt comfortable using.After teaching English to your students, you’ll be responsible for testing them on what they’ve learned. AUA Language Center was established as a bi-national center in 1952 under the auspices of the American University Alumni Association formed in 1921 under the patronage of His Majesty the King to “promote further mutual understanding between the people of Thailand and the United States through instruction in their respective languages, customs and traditions.” And I had two classes on the weekends. So I decided to I had been to Thailand six times before making the permanent move with my family in 2014.

We are licensed by the Ministry of Education and our curriculums have been approved by them as suitable for fast assimilation of a new language. Whether anyone will ever find out, that’s another story.I’ve worked at some well known corporations in Thailand, such as Office Mate, and I’ve worked for some lesser-known companies, like the Japanese welding supply company, Kobe.

These students were always a joy to teach because they enthusiastically participated in class activities.At language centers, most adults who show up to class are motivated to learn. Schedule your private lessons at your convenience and study from the comfort of home with one of our experienced Thai, English, Chinese or Japanese language teachers or you can join to our online group classes as detailed below. I knew I wanted to teach English. You just have to know where to go—teaching websites and malls. And besides, English degrees will not prepare you for teaching English as a foreign language.
My pay was raised to 450 baht per hour for in-house courses and 800 baht per hour for corporate contracts. LEARN MORE.

Sometimes, these people don’t have qualifications But keep in mind that although this happens, it’s illegal. This doesn’t mean you have to show up in a three-piece suit either. Add your school.

I worked for one of America’s largest public utilities. So getting from point A in the morning to point B in the afternoon to point C in the evening was easier than if I didn’t have a car.

The school is close to the beach & near to the town centre. And everything in between.It’s safe to say I’ve seen the inside of a lot of different corporations in Thailand and have come to learn what to expect and what not to expect when teaching English at them.Sometimes you’ll be given a whiteboard and set of markers—and that’s it. But I use corporate contracts for sample reasons.If, on the other hand, every company you teach at ends their program after thirty hours or requests another teacher, then it’s time to go back to the drawing board.A 30-hour teaching contract will last you three months if you teach the standard two-day a week schedule and account for holidays and cancelled classes.

And they just don’t care to improve.You might work for language centers that just don’t respect the value you bring to the classroom.
