I am afraid that you will not get many takers in the Teaching Forum. Most of us have been forced to attend and pay for a "Thai Culture Course" already. I could be wrong though.

1-month courses (20 days, excluded weekend) about Thai culture which are Thai food, Thai dessert, Thai dancing, Thai boxing, Thai massage, Fruit and vegetable carving for students and staffs.

Participants' register fee is 25,000 baht per person (excluded accommodation fee). The register fee includes:

- Lunch for 20 days

- Snack and refreshment 2 times per day for 20 days

- Learning document

- 1 day excursion

- Teaching and learning materials

You must be kidding.

How is this course related to the Thai Ministry of Education or The Teachers' Council of Thailand? This is a sub-forum for teachers in Thailand.

... 25k Baht? I can learn all of those for 5-10k baht a month through touristy places, far less through connections.
