Esl Teaching In Chiang Rai?

[twelve]

Hi

I am coming to Thailand from Oz to do a 4 week TEFL course (I also am an experienced journalist with a university diploma) and I want to teach somewhere in the North. I like the sound of Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai particularly because I prefer quieter places. I was wondering if there is work there for an ESL teacher and if so how often do jobs come up? I would prefer part time work.

Any advice/opinions would be appreciated.

Thanks Mumbo and Unknown. Do you know if there is part time work available?....Full time scares me too much.

Thanks

Chiang Rai is much quieter than Chiang Mai.

If you're lucky enough to get part-time work (and the powers that be clearly frown on it), you'll really get paid peanuts.
