Warrigal Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 I've been offered a job teaching English in Pattaya but need to bring my girlfriend... Looking around your site, I found that an easy and inexpensive way to bring her is to enrole her in a language school, they can arrange a visa... She wants to learn Thai and it will give her something to do... Translate for me (LOL)... My Foreign Language learning skills have been proven to be inadaquate... 3 years in China and I've only mastered survival chinese, very limited... I did a search and found a few schools but I don't have the local knowledge. Can someone suggest a good value school in Pattaya please? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humphrey Bear Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 There's a forum for teachers on this site - or there is a web-site for teachers in Thailand - something like Ajarn.com. Google that and get advice from the horses mouth. But be warned - many schools like the cachet of a native-speaker English teacher, but some don't like to pay a proper rate.

Warrigal Posted June 15, 2007 Author Share Posted June 15, 2007 (edited) But be warned - many schools like the cachet of a native-speaker English teacher, but some don't like to pay a proper rate. Thailand doesn't seem to be much different from China in these aspects... I was reading the bus scam and a few other threads... Same tricks and lies here... As for teaching here, I love it but the private schools will try to cheat you... The Universities and government schools are better to work for but they don't pay as well... The school I'm looking for is for my Chinese Girlfriend to learn Thai if I take this job on, she needs something constructive to do... Thanks for the info... www.hefeiexpat.com if your interested in sharing stories... Edited June 15, 2007 by Warrigal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
