Teaching English
in Thailand |
|
I would like to
teach English in
Thailand. I will
be taking a TEFL
(teaching
English as a
foreign
language)
certificate
course, but I
was recently
told that to
work legally in
Thailand I need
to have a
degree,
requiring two to
four years of
study. Is this
true? |

course.” |
