Latest Tc Tests Postponed

Featured Replies

I've never met a Thai called Derek before. Maybe his parents were Dr Who fans....I will exterminate.

Being reported on a well known teaching forum that they have actually now been suspended until further notice.

The TC classes have been canceled since February unless you found a way to slip through. MOE is now forcing the schools to get permission to hold a class now and may be rejected. So if you sign up for a class that doesn't mean the school can actually deliver.

If anyone is interested.

The Teachers Council is stating that they are controlling TC classes because they want 3 day and 4 day classes instead of 2 days. Many farang run schools were offering 2 day classes and the Teachers Council is saying they mistrust these schools and the fact that farangs are preferring the farang run schools instead of Thai run schools is creating more issues. (This was actually spoken to my wife on the phone. I am assuming this is the reason for the crackdown)

My opinion: The farang schools are making too much money and the Thai run schools are complaining. Now the Teachers Council is controlling the classes on a case by case basis.

Also: Tewi Language School was given permission to hold a TC class starting today for 3 days. The Teachers Council own rules state that the max enrollment is 30. They have over 60 students in this class. (That's a good thing this many teachers could get the class finished)

Thanks to Scott I just completed the Course in Bkk.."4th to 27th.April ..2.5 days..Finally got everthing sorted after 2 vsits to Karusapa and 5 nights spent in Bkk....There were 73 students enrolled.3 turned up more than 2 hours late and were told they would have to come back next month>I am sure she said they were running the course in May then it would be suspended..for contact Monica at 0816500047....Thanks again to Scott telling me of the course last month..I just made my visa,second waiver with 2 days to spare..

Your welcome. I think the credit goes to you for posting. (I like taking credit, but really can't because I don't usually accept blame!)

This is a thread about the TC Tests, but the last few posts seem to be talking about the Culture Course if i'm not mistaken. Or am i? I'm not sure, can someone clarify? Also, a 2.5 day course running from the 4th to 27th of April. Confused :blink:
