saw lots written about this Walen school but not much about its competitors

would be nice to see a full listing for Pattaya and Bkk with

-comparative prices and whether all funds are payable upfront or not

-ability to provide one year visa or not

-description along with feedback from students

That is an interesting question. We always welcome comparisons. If you indeed want to compare some schools please visit them as well. See who runs them, meet the teachers. Check how long have they been on the market. Talk to their students, observe a lesson etc.

There is at lease one TEFL school in Pattaya that is now also "teaching Thai" they have one classroom! Of course they offer ED visa! Also large portions of their website is copied from our website. This is quite common. There are a few schools that have done it. Often word for word.

I am sure there will be more. Now the question is what do you want? Just ED visa? Or do you also want to learn Thai?

Also who runs them, can we get some names? How many students do they have? What method of teaching do they use? How many classrooms do they have? Do they seem to open a 'school' just to do ED visas?

I know a lot about this field so will be happy to join.
