When in the Western world, especially in Europe, we need a lot of space and privacy and are often expected to be able to work unprompted, in Thailand things are done collectively. There are no “I's” in a team, literally. Understanding how these teams work and their sometimes not so obvious hierarchy it is much easier to adapt and be accepted as a part of them.

Federico Riva Alumni Experiences Currently living in Bangkok, Thailand, I am teaching English to Primary Six students and I am in a supposed international context. Juggling a body of students who are not entirely international and largely Thai can at times be like pulling teeth. This post was written by our TEFL certification graduate Kavitha S. Please note that this blog post might not necessarily represent the beliefs or opinions of ITTT.

It is a true fear for me as an educator that students may not know...  [Read more]

Shirin Sophy Destinations Alumni Experiences Before moving to Thailand in November 2021 while it almost appeared not just impossible but somehow foolish to leave your amiable country behind and travel 5,479 km to an exotic far-flung destination on a plane full of self-willed international passengers when the pandemic was still going strong, I had no clear idea about the fascinating country I was visiting and life-altering changes I was about to experience.

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Thailand is famously known as “ the land of smiles”. In some situations, smiling is the way to save face or to avoid conflicts. This often includes the time when Thai people have to communicate with foreigners in English and have no idea what the other meant. They simply smile to get out of a situation instead of making the best out of it by practicing their English speaking skill. On the other hand, they build up a fear of making mistakes and avoid being in that particular circumstance in the future. As English today plays important roles in tourism and the Thai economy as a whole, still, Thai people struggle to communicate effectively. Here are some areas suggested why it is difficult for Thai learners to improve their speaking skills. This post...  [Read more]

Federico Riva TEFL Information Alumni Experiences Teaching Ideas If we are going to look at is the differences between teaching monolingual and multilingual classes, then firstly we should define what we mean by these two things. Monolingual students are a group of students that all have the same native language and typically such classes taught in that country. So an example of that could be the teaching of English to Thai students in Thailand. The chances are that the vast majority of your class will all speak Thai so they all have the same L1. The difference with a Multilingual class is that the students will have a range of first languages so they have different L1’s. An example here may be the teaching of English to a group of students from a range of countries, in an English...  [Read more]
