Teaching is a noble profession and at times, it is a well paid profession as well. Teaching English in Thailand seems to prove this true as many schools pay the right candidates what would be a great salary in international market as well. However, to teach English in Thailand, the candidate needs to have a TEFL or TESOL certification. Thai employers are rather stern in their standards when it comes to the qualifications.
Mediakids Academy is a leading institute who continuously train the aspirants for TEFL and TESOL tests and they said, ”to work as a teacher of English in Thailand, the candidate should be a native speaker of English. Moreover, they need to have a bachelor degree in any discipline. Finally, they need a valid TEFL or TESOL certificate to be qualified to teach English in Thailand”.
When asked for explanation, the owner of Mediakids Academy said, “The bachelor degree proves that the candidate has minimum qualification to be a teacher. TEFL proves that not only his English is up to the standard but he is also master of delivering effective lessons to the students, manage a classroom, and make the learning interactive and engaging so that the learner can easily start speaking, reading and writing good English. In fact, the government also issues the teaching licence quicker if the candidate has a TEFL or TESOL certificate”.
Mediakids Academy is in a position to pass these expert observations as they handle hundreds of students every year in their various centres in the country. They have a large team of qualified and experienced trainers who has a good success rate and they also have different courses for the candidates to choose from. The institute has their own job network and arranges for jobs at reputed international schools, language institutes and government schools for the successful students.
