I live in Bangkok now, currently on a tourist visa.
I'm an American with a bachelors degree in physics from a U.S. university and have the original diploma with me. I have done some volunteer level class instruction and tutoring in English in the U.S. but have no paid experience nor a TEFL or any other kind of teaching certificate. I feel I'm able to connect well in communicating and explaining unfamiliar concepts. Most of my professional background is in computer programming so I'd also be open to teaching that, if there's a demand, along with high school level math and physics. I'd also be just as happy teaching English by itself if that's where the need is.
My preference would be to begin as soon as practicable and would very much like to avoid having to first achieve any additional certification if at all possible. What are my chances if I wished to teach at a quality, reputable school such as Wattana Wittaya Academy? If to start off with I'd have to settle for a smaller, private or public school which would be good ones to teach for? Thanks.
