She is a natural talent, pronunciation, vocabulary, amazingly quick-witted, quicker than myself to my delighted annoyance. Mostly verbal, not enough reason for systematic writing. But if and when she is extremely meticulous, writing the same thing as often as needed to get it right, no short cuts.

No education to speak of, farmers girl. She could teach spoken English now but as you know without so-called diploma hardly any country girl will have the self-confidence to even try. Plus she wouldn´t know how to structure/ start such endeavor.

Any suggestions how lead her, I never push her ? toefl or other ways?

Just advertise for private lessons see what happens. Ask around if anyone wants them.

I doubt anyone will employ her for TEFL as what's the point ? Legal matters or not. TEFL'ers are only really employed for conversation purposes so people get more confident and learn to pronounce the words correctly. The Thai English teachers can teach grammar, reading writing etc.

I did a TESOL course as a fall back and there was a middle aged Thai woman doing that so she had a certificate for her private lessons. So Thais can do the courses.

She couldn't understand much English though and would start doing something completely different to what she had been asked to do.

Thanks for your reply, but you are one step ahead. To clarify what I mean= I want her herself to get proper systematic teaching/training in English, ideally with a certificate of value at the end, before she goes out to teach herself.

I am looking for a secondary educational way for a student who has had only the most basic schooling experienced so far.

E:g. what makes her acceptable to teach Thai children?

One of the members was kind enough to recommend "Community College Thailand" http://www.fgcc.ac.th . I contacted them but looking at their schedule, they don´t seem to operate anymore ( 2009)

Nong Kai for 2-3 months , why not.
