What to study to get my 5 year teaching license from Krusapa
MarcelV replied to Adam85's topic in Teaching in Thailand Forum
I finished the St. Roberts course this year. Still waiting for the follow-up steps though, probably an exam at a yet unknown date and location. -
Why I Moved from the Bangkok Post Forum to ASEAN Now
MarcelV replied to renaissanc's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Bareback lover Munin and junta sycophants like Renaissance chased me away from there. AN is not much better though. At least the mods still actively intervene when someone oversteps the line. -
Has the rainy season arrived in Thailand at last?
MarcelV replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
In my home province of Narathiwat, in the far south, rainy season never went away in the first place. It's been a rainy year through and through, with hardly a day without rain. -
I don't know about Pattaya, but in my neck of the woods, I was able to just walk in last Friday at the local hospital and get jabbed within 10 minutes. Barely any customers, so it was quick and easy. Most hospitals in Thailand may offer the same quick service, is my guess.

As a foreigner in Thailand, I can only repeat my mantra: Stay Away From Narcotics. Just do.

Bangkok Patana 2022/23 School Fees
MarcelV replied to blackcab's topic in Primary & Secondary Education
Great school. My Thai wife and I sent all our four children there. Good stuff. And, yes, it's expensive, but I got plenty of cash anyway and I wanna give my kids a great education. -
The way Thai schools organise stuff...
MarcelV replied to cooked's topic in Primary & Secondary Education
As a teacher I still don't know when the Fall holiday starts, or who my M.1 students are, as they keep bringin in new ones during the semester. I'm tellin y'all, teachin in Thailand ain't everything if ya can't handle uncertainties and general chaotic stuff and everything. -
5 Year Teaching Licence - No certificate or card?
MarcelV replied to blindbarney's topic in Teaching in Thailand Forum
I wish I had a 5-year license in the first place. I'm almost on my 4th waiver. Two more years, and it's farewell, Thailand! New teachers just don't get a license anymore. Thailand is tryin to chase all of us away. Chok dii khrap! -
Dual Pricing Reconfirmed In Thailand National Parks
MarcelV replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I'd rather pay 500 baht for a NP if the Thai pay the same as I, than pay 400 if Thai pay only 40 baht. -
Chemistry teachers- where to buy Alkali metals?
MarcelV replied to ESLTeacher1989's topic in Teaching in Thailand Forum
The Dark Web sells any chemical you need, and more! -
Mask Wearing Rules to be Relaxed from Mid-June
MarcelV replied to Stocky's topic in Southern Thailand
@StockyNo matter what the Bangkok government decides, expect to see masks worn by the majority of people for years to come. My school of 4000+ students has already made it clear masks must be worn on school grounds indefinitely. Malaysian and Singaporean tourists don't seem to have a problem with it either, right? So I guess Hat Yai will keep em too. -
Mask Wearing Rules to be Relaxed from Mid-June
MarcelV replied to Stocky's topic in Southern Thailand
Most of my students seem not to like the masks. I love the masks though, and always tell my students to wear them if I see their faces without. I will certainly keep wearing face masks in the years to come. I don't care what anyone thinks about it. -
Hajj Flights Hat Yai Airport - Organised Chaos
MarcelV replied to Stocky's topic in Southern Thailand
I know how crowded it can be. There are even direct international flights from Narathiwat Airport for Hajj. The only time of the year when aircraft fly anywhere else but Bangkok.
