It was removed as it was flaming the OP who is looking for advise not sarcasm. Your reply here is also not helpful and borderline trolling. Please read the forum rules before responding.

Post deleted and warning given.

We are less tolerant here than some forums.

If you can't apply for a work permit here, you can't get any job here...legally.

Another post has been deleted. Let's try not make unnecessary remarks about grammar. Not everyone is as computer capable as others. The OP has asked about teaching. He hasn't asked for advice on his typing or grammar. He asked asked for an analysis of his moral character either.

Thanks for letting him know that working without a work permit is illegal.

Note to the OP:

1. Do you have at least one bachelor's degree from an accredited university?

2. Will you be better dressed than your avatar?

no and no...

comeone guy's.. diden't ask for remarks of my education or the looks of my avatar.

i'm not planning on teaching in a university..

lessons in english on a easy level of education.. is an easy thing to do, i can print of the lesson plan online.. or ask some friends to copy their lesson plans..

so the student's will not have my wrong grammar or spelling mistakes.. they will get resenable lesson's.

and i know working without a workpermit is illegal.. but comeone.

who are you kidding....

you all got ton's offs friends that do the same thing here or in their home country... you give them the same remarks.

Two things are needed to live a successful life teaching in Thailand. A BA or BS degree and a work permit. If you have neither, be prepared to work illegally, be subject to fines or being arrested and expect that your income will be under 15k.month. Furthermore, I don't know if you are a native speaker or not, but you will be payed less if you are not.

So question is why would the individual not be able to apply for a work permit? Only thing I can think of is maybe collecting welfare or disability from home country? I hope there is a better reason? Curious to know. Any thoughts. Seems odd to look for a full time job and not want to get a work visa processed.

If you look at the opening page of the teaching forum, there are a number of pinned topics, including questions and qualifications. You might want to look through those.

I will close this topic for now, since it is drawing some off-topic comments and questions. ThaiVisa rules do not permit us to discuss activities which are illegal and since the OP, at this time, doesn't want to get a work permit, further discussions would simply be trying to circumvent the law. This is against forum rules.

Should there be further questions, the OP can send me a PM and I will re-open the topic.

Thanks.
