mbkudu Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 I did a search here for BitS, but found nothing. Has anyone here had any experience working for them? Their website looks ok and they claim a decent hourly wage (600 baht). Any feeback is appreciated. Thanks, Mbk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenkannif Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 I think I get confused with this lot and bfits??? Or am I going mad??? I know one of the Mods on the other teaching site works for one of them. TEFL Watch might be worth checking out though??? PM me if you want linking (although I think can post that one here?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbkudu Posted May 29, 2006 Author Share Posted May 29, 2006 (edited) Thanks Ken. It's called BitS. I was confused at first as well with Bfits. I thought the Schoolwatch was dead, but I'll give it a try nonetheless. I tried all sorts of variations for 'thaischoolwatch', .com, .org, .net, .th, and didn't come up with anything. I'll take that link if you've still got it. Thanks, Mbk Edited May 29, 2006 by mbkudu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenkannif Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 I think it's okay as it's not a competing site...apologies Mods if it is! http://www.teflwatch.com Sorry URL has changed a fair bit! Good luck mate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluffer Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 They are different branches of the same company. BITS is the corporate teaching arm and BFITS is the "school" arm. I worked for BITS for a short while, its got its good and bad points. The pay is not bad but the downside is that you can get "removed" from a course. They send someone along to the course about 3 or 4 lessons in and ask the students if they like you and if they dont you effectively get fired. At least thats what happened 4 years ago.

matthew78 Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 I'm an ajarn guy, not a thaivisa guy, so I just lost my post not being able to figure out the ###### interface. Oh well. In summary, BiTS is a very good company to work for if you are looking for corporate work. Godammit. Sorry, I can't be bothered to post all those details again.

matthew78 Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 PS- Seriously, it's a good company. You should simply call them, talk to John, and you're off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jigsaw Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 actually i ve worked for BITS for quite a while and I personally had no problem at all. the pay is decent and they re reasonable chilled out people who don t luck common sense. I would say they have a pretty good reputation out there. So go for it. It s much better than many other places Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
