  1. I'm a African American ESL teacher that decided after a few months teaching in China, I would come to Thailand to become a teacher. Long story short, I got stomped by covid- 19 in china of 2019 and I was out of work. I then decided to look for an agency to get me working in Thailand. I was a bit naive about Thailand views on people of color and some the prejudice practices in the education business. I viewed Thailand as a tourist spot first, rather than a underdeveloped corruption hub. Thailand's education system is a nightmare on elm street. I regretted wasting two years of my life going school to school due to unlawful firing practices. Most of my problems with thai schools were xenophobic behavior, merciless prejudice responses when I share classroom space. to make it worst they always had an <deleted> farang lead teacher as their watch dog in some cases. I wasn't seen for my talents as a educator in these schools but more for my skin color. I was treated with no respect within the education business of Thailand. Contracts were just 3 months to use me for presences. Thats when I realized me being a tourist is the only thing I could really be in this country as a black man. Being a 4 year lead teacher was not happening. I'm not saying farangs don't have issues with Thailand education system, but being a black man under Thai government system that is racist was like swim with an anchor. I personally think their is no respect for brothers out here besides being just sex tourist and tricking off.
