Contract
A typical Thai school year is divided into two half-year terms. For the best possible teaching positions, it is strongly advised to apply for the beginning of each semester;
• The first semester begins May to September
• The second semester begins November to March
• October and April are holiday periods
Most schools in our network prefer long term contracts (2 semesters); however, all teachers are required to sign a minimum 1 term contract (1 semester). 1 or 2 term contracts are acceptable, and will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis in concordance with the prospective school.
Teachers who sign a one-year contract beginning from November are guaranteed 3–4 weeks paid holiday during the October break.
Note:
The contract signing will take place on the first week of school. Contracts must be signed in person. Schools are not permitted to sign contracts long distance. When a school accepts a teacher, we will send an approval letter to officially confirm the teacher’s placement, which will conclude the application process.
Accommodation
We will arrange for a school staff member to pick you up and take you to find accommodation once you first arrive at your school area. Please find more information about accommodation price, cost of living in Thailand, and our video presentation by following the link www.teachthailand.org/salary-teach-in-thaland
Non-B visa and work-permit: You must hold a non-immigrant visa “B” (non-B visa) in order to apply for a work permit. Before arriving to Thailand, you may apply for a non-B visa at a Thai embassy/consulate within reach. We are able to provide you with all the necessary documents for a speedy application process.
If you are currently in Thailand on a tourist visa, you will need to first sign a contract with your new school and wait as we prepare the required documents for you to apply within a neighboring country. Bordering countries include: Malaysia, Laos, Cambodia, and Myanmar.

Hi,
Do you employ teahers without a degree?
I have been teaching here for 18 months.
Non-degree is OK, but you should be a NES teacher. You can teach in Thailand.
