One of the most fascinating species in Bangkok are surely the ex-pat Teaching English as A Foreign Language (TEFL) teachers, as this diary will attest.
Englishdroid is a similarly bleak look at TEFL dealing with those everyday aspects aspects of teaching like
shagging students, and the cringe inducing
The Satanic Units - The Course Book From Hell.
If blogs are more your bag, just check out the
Tefl Daily Grind, with gloomy reports inside the frontlines of hopeless Thai school beaurocracy.
If you still fancy trying your hand at teaching in Thailand, why not check the place that offered you 300 dollars a month isn't on
THIS list.
Could it be unscrupulous agencies are raking in millions of baht sending fly-by-night foreigners to teach English at public schools, or the certificate forger shops setup next to police stations.
...and if Bangkok's not your bag there's always the restive South,
where teachers are in great demand.
