Teach English in Thailand

Statue of Buddha in Thailand

Thailand is a popular destination for ESL teachers who are interested in gaining a valuable cultural experience. Thailand embraces a rich diversity of cultures and traditions, and prides itself on rich history, tropical climate, and renowned hospitality. Situated at the heart of Southeast Asia, Thailand is a natural gateway to Indochina, Myanmar and Southern China.

However, Thailand is much more than just a place with beautiful islands and beaches, enchanting temples, great climate, cheap shopping, and friendly people. For those who are interested in teaching English in Thailand, Teach Away offers a variety of jobs ranging from basic ESL training for adults and university students, to teaching other subjects such as math, science, drama, physical education, and music (to mention just a few). We offer teaching placements in International Schools following international curricula, and local language schools across Thailand.

To be considered for English teaching jobs in Thailand, you must meet the minimum requirement of a Bachelor Degree. A TESL certification or equivalent is also required in order to obtain a working visa.  Those who do not have this certification can obtain it from their schools during teacher training.
