What do Thai students think of us?

Straight from the horses's mouth

In Ajarn Street: Articles - 4th November 2008

I wondered if our Thai students really had a true picture of the salaries we earn, the hardships we face, and the hoops we have to jump through? I put ten questions to a range of Thai corporate staff - male, female, single, married with kids. What do they really know? And is there any respect left for the 'ajarn farang'?

Will I need a degree to teach in Thailand?

A question that will rage forever and a day.

In Ajarn Street: Articles - 29th October 2007

Ajarn.com asks just how many teachers are teaching with fake credentials. Will schools employ teachers without a degree? And does a degree even make you a better teacher?

Surely not.
