Why This 25 Year Old American Lady Chose Thailand!

1. Is a job placement guaranteed?

Provided you make an effort to apply for jobs, and present yourself properly at an interview, then you will secure a position. Thailand has an abundance of opportunities due to a shortage of teachers, and we’ll guide you to prepare for interviews. Success depends on presenting yourself well. Dress smartly, be punctual, and cover tattoos, as appearance matters a lot in Thailand. Everyone who followed our advice and wanted a teaching job secured one. However, if you show up in shorts and flip-flops, or looking like you got mugged on the way, your chances will drop significantly! 😅

2. Do I need a BA degree to teach English in Thailand?

Legally, Thailand requires a BA degree to teach, but there are ways to work legally without one.

If you don’t have a BA degree:

• Skip online applications and directly contact agents or schools.

• Talk to principals or directors and express your interest. If they like you and offer a job, they can usually hire an agent to help secure a work permit.

• You can set up your own Thai company and teach English privately, or offer your services to schools as a tutor or consultant.

• No degree is required to teach online.

Always ensure you work legally in Thailand with the correct visa and work permit!

3. Where do your programs take place?

We hold our 1-week intensive courses in two locations:

• Central Pattaya, near the Big C.

• North of Chaweng Beach, Koh Samui Island.

4. Is my certificate accredited and internationally recognized?

Yes! Our certificate is accredited by:

• The International TEFL Organisation (No: 7907634)

• OBQC.org (Online Business Quality Certified, No: 916418)

Our program has over 1,350 Trustpilot reviews and 50+ video testimonials. Your success matters to us, and we stand by the quality of our programs.

5. What's the daily schedule like?

You’ll attend classes from 9 am to 4 pm (Monday to Saturday). Sundays are usually half-days, giving you time to relax and explore.

6. How assured are job prospects after completing the program?

Thailand’s high demand for teachers gives you excellent job prospects if you prepare well and present yourself professionally. Alternatively, you can become an online affiliate marketer with our help.

7. How safe is Thailand?

Thailand is very safe—often safer than the UK or USA. However, exercise caution on the roads, as traffic can be unpredictable.

8. What's the deal with visas?

Most nationalities receive a 60-day visa-exempt stamp on arrival, which you can extend for another 30 days. After you secure a job, your employer will arrange your business visa and work permit. For details, visit Thai eVisa.

9. What are accommodation options in Thailand?

You can find clean, budget-friendly options starting at just $300 per month.

10. How do I get to Koh Samui, Pattaya, or Chiang Mai?

Fly into Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi Airport, then:

* Pattaya: Take a bus ($10) or taxi ($60) which takes around 90 minutes.

* Take a short, 1-hour flight to Koh Samui with Bangkok Airways.

11. When should I arrive for the TEFL course?

Arrive two days early to recover from jet lag and ensure a smooth start. If you’d like to arrive earlier, we can help arrange your hotel. Don’t arrive late!

12. How do I pay for my TEFL course?

You can pay in full for a discount or choose monthly installments. Use credit/debit cards, wire transfer, or Wise for secure and affordable payments.

13. What if I need to cancel, change dates, or request a refund?

We can’t offer refunds under any circumstances, because we start organizing your program immediately after payment. However, you can:

• Transfer your seat to a friend if you can’t attend.

• We aim to make the process as smooth as possible!

14. What should I pack for Thailand?

Pack light! Essentials are widely available locally. Even if you’re staying a year, pack as if it’s for a week. Laundry services are cheap and everywhere.

15. Is there a code of conduct on the TEFL course?

You can dress comfortably, but we expect professional behavior at all times. Disruptive actions, rudeness, poor hygiene, or arriving drunk or hungover won’t be tolerated. Anyone breaking these rules may be expelled without a refund!

16. Can I extend my stay in Thailand after the course?

Yes! Many graduates stay longer. We’ll help with job placement and visa extension advice.

17. Do I need to be a grammar expert to succeed in the TEFL course?

Not at all! We cater to all levels, and you’ll learn everything you need during the program.
