With a new surge toward slow travelling - staying long term in a country to soak up the culture and learn as much as possible - teaching English has become a popular way to make living abroad a reality. Thailand's top industry is tourism, and with that comes an urgent need to speak the global language. Teachers abound in every corner of this tropical nation, and every semester there is room for more.

If you are looking to start a new chapter in your life, then discover the freedom and the fun of teaching English in Thailand! Teach in Thailand to meet locals that will show you the Thailand behind the news stories. Travel to work in a tuk-tuk, be dazzled by downtown Bangkok, meet the keepers of ancient temples, and become part of your school community. The OVC Teach in Thailand program places individuals just like you in paid semester or year positions, teaching at primary or secondary schools in urban, town, or rural locations. Anywhere you teach in Thailand, you will have the opportunity to learn Thai customs, share your own way of life, and have new experiences that make it impossible to take even the smallest things for granted.

You will make lifelong friends from around the world, experience all of the excitement that Thailand has to offer, and learn a skill that could take you all over the world, in only 3 weeks. By taking our accredited three-week training course, you will learn how to teach fun and useful classes for your students and on top of that, you will get an internationally recognised certificate.

In just a few weeks you can qualify to teach English as a foreign language and be placed as a teacher in Thailand. There is more to an English teacher than a certificate, and without the correct training, you will struggle to control classes or prepare lessons easily. The course focuses on methodology by using real-world, well-developed techniques to achieve better results amongst your students, and in turn increasing your employability.

Your training will be held in either Chiang Mai, Thailand's most laid back city or Krabi, a cool coastal town with easy access to all the surrounding islands.

Our partner in Thailand has amazing teacher training programs, which provides guaranteed placement after the successful completion of the program.

Eligibility:
18-45 years' old
Excellent English accent
Passion to work with children

Interviews will be held at OVC Port Elizabeth office
