Thailand is a great location for foreigners who are looking for teaching jobs. Though native speakers of English are highly in demand for teachign English to Thais, a host of other nationalities with little or no experience in teaching may make a descent living here by becoming a teacher.
Yes, you may. Just a few easy steps can lead you towards a very bright career. Here are some simple tips of how you can approach a potential employer.
1. Create a very good resume with no spelling errors or any other errors.
2. Post your resume in JobJob site of Bangkok Post and also the job sections of Nation, Horeajarn etc.
3. Visit international and Thai schools personally with your resume and ask for the Principal/ Head of English teachers.
Points to remember.
1. Very few jobs are actually advertised or listed in thailand.
2. Walk-in might be the best option for you to start looking for real openings.
3. It is a good idea for you to dress in formal attire when you go in for an interview or even for enquiry.
4. Do not leave your resume with the reception or even the HR. The best way is to meet with the Dean or the Head of the Depratment and hand it over to him / her.
What you should do if you do not get a response?
1. Follow up with phone calls.
2. Ask for the term beginning dates and schedules. If one term is on going, apply right when it finishes. There are openings during those times.
Good Hunting!!!
