Learning Thai, taking a tefl course Thailand or teaching English in Thailand, is great fun and there is no better place in Thailand than the coastal town of Hua hin with so much to do here in this historic land mark you can’t go wrong. Education in Hua Hin is provided by various schools, colleges, universities, and language centers, as well as a few private individuals. While Hua Hin does not quite have the same choice and quality of educational institutions compared with Bangkok and some other countries, there are certainly many reasonable schools around town that have either Thai or international curriculums. However, the situation seems to improve each year with more and more options becoming available, and with the increasing importance of the English language, schools and universities are realising the value and benefits of teaching at least some English-based courses. There are many expats in Hua Hin with children of varying ages, who understandably need quality educational establishments with a high standard of teaching that we are accustomed to in the West, as well as having the chance to gain internationally recognised and respected qualifications. Foreign residents usually want to send their children to schools that teach subjects in English or their native language, which has created a high demand in the local area that is perhaps not fully satisfied. Many schools employ native English speakers, but there is ongoing criticism about the standards of teaching. Nowadays, the situation has somewhat improved with more stringent requirements on the teachers’ qualifications and experience required. The problem remains, how do you choose a prospective nursery, school or university in Hua Hin and what conditions and standards of education can you expect? Important criteria include the school’s curriculum (it could be mainly Thai or international), the teaching methods, range and availability of courses, any associated costs and fees, the location, class sizes, as well as its overall reputation. You might be wise to visit the school at various times especially when classes are being held, and talk with the teachers and as many others as possible such as existing parents. There are comprehensive resources on the Internet about the local schools and universities, as well discussions on local forums. For learning Thai you couldn’t do better than using the services of Insight English a privately run language school which also has teaching English in Thailand programs as well as its own tefl course Thailand recognized worldwide by all major English centre’s. If you are thinking about staying longer than you originally intended too then you might want to contact Insight English for advice from their Thai visa services department. Learning Thai is so different from anything else I have ever done in my life, it can be frustrating sometimes but if it was easy then there would be no sense of achievement and no satisfaction at the end of a lesson. Learning Thai and teaching English in Thailand are worthwhile and will leave always wondering should I stay or should I go.
