I plan to to a TEFL course in January, and was wandering what my first step to getting a work visa would be? It all seems a bit confusing, and am unsure weather to sort it out now, or wait until I start my course. Is it something my employer will take care of, or maybe even the company I do the course with?

Wise old heads of the teaching game please help!

Now then everyone!

I plan to move to Chiang Mai in December this year to live and hopefully get a job teaching English. I was wandering what the deal is with being paid, and do you need a special visa to work legally? Last time I visited I just got the 28 day stamp at the airport, but dont fancy doing a visa run every month, even if you can work without a proper working visa.

Also, can anyone recommend a good company to do my TEFL course with in Chiang Mai. Any advice would be greatfully recieved
