ph0enixrising Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 Sorry but couldn't find the answer... I have a Bachelor's degree and was previously licensed as a teacher in my home country, but that teaching license has now expired. I previously taught at 2 different schools in Thailand (for a total of just over 2 years) and at that time Karusapha issued waivers. I've been out of Thailand for a few years, but considering coming back. Anyone know the current regulations? Would I be able to get a waiver? Or...??? Thanks!

Scott Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 I am not sure and hopefully someone will be along with up-to-date information. I do know that people who possessed a license, even if it had expired, were granted a license a few years back. I don't know if this has changed or not. Thailand does like to change regulations frequently and without notice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annu Nair Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Hi ph0enixrising, Have a question for you. Can you please tell me if you are a non-native speaker of English and how you obtained your licence? Will be highly appreciated! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Tiger Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Check this list for more info. For the teaching permit (commonly called waiver) it's item 15 on the list. http://site.ksp.or.th/download.php?site=englishsite&SiteMenuID=29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the point of view of the op, I think the home country may be relevant, and I'm just theorising here. For example, if you have done a pgce in the UK, that would be acceptable to the authorities here, even if you were not a currently licensed UK teacher. I don't know that much about licensing in the UK or other NES countries, but I presume teachers must have an up-to-date licence to teach, as well as having their pgce/ relevant qualification (and practice to get the QTS/ some sort of monitored practice). I think if you can show certificates for the academic side of qualification in your country, it's unlikely that the Thai authorities will demand a current licence from that home country. I could be talking rubbish however; if I am, no doubt I will be made to suffer soon enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 I'll close this topic, since the OP has been removed from the forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
