About the Job

Overview

English Program in Watcarawittaya School is urgently looking for a full time MATH teacher, and a full time ENGLISH teacher . Watcharawittaya is a mid-size government school in a town of Kamphaengphet, which is the provincial capital of Kamphaengphet province. The town is located halfway between Bangkok and Chiang Mai. So the both cities are easily accessible by buses or vans.

The school is located right in the town next to the Big C Mall. The cost of living in Kamphaengphet is relatively cheap. There are a few foreign teachers who have been living in the town for six years and over. There is some western food available from the local mall, supermarkets, and restaurants.

The successful candidate for the English teaching position will be expected to teach between 20 – 21 periods per week to classes of over 30 students, M1 to M6 (Grades 7-12). The successful candidate for the math teaching position will be expected to teach between 19 – 20 periods per week to classes of over 30 students, M.1 to M.3 (Grades 7-9). Both candidates will be expected to participate in some school activities, such as English camps, workshops, clubs etc. (occasional weekends are involved)

The school offers a 12-month contract with a monthly salary commencing at 30,000 to 40,000 baht, depending on one’s experience and qualifications. All Thai holidays are paid in full. The school will provide all necessary paperwork and assistance in obtaining the visa and work permit. The school also pays for the visa, work permit and social security (partially). 

The English teaching position is open to a NATIVE SPEAKER ONLY (if you can comprehend this!)! All applicants must possess a bachelor degree (or higher) and transcripts (absolutely essential for obtaining a visa!). All the documents must be originals (no certified copies please!). Please note, all degrees are subject to thorough check, both, by the school and the Teacher’s Council of Thailand (and we mean it!)! Candidates wishing to stay for an extended period of time in Thailand are preferred! Teaching experience in Thailand is preferred, but not essential. But for the MATH teaching position we will also consider a NON-NATIVE speaker, provided the applicant is fluent in English, has a degree in math, and can teach.

The successful candidates must be enthusiastic, reliable and honest, have respect for Thai people and Thai culture, have a positive view of Thailand and MUST LIKE TEACHING (Not to be here for another visa extension!) You are not micro managed, there is no ‘horrible boss’ looking over your shoulder. However, it is essential that you are able to work independently and not to panic if you are not given all the information you deem necessary. The candidates must be able to start immediately.

If you are interested in the above positions, please send your covering letter, resume, a copy of your passport, degree, transcripts, other relevant certificates and documents, and a recent photo to olistonekpp @ hotmail.com
