But why Thailand?

Postbox letter from Tim, Kaohsiung

Why is it a binary choice between Thailand and going home to teach?

I can't get the top teaching jobs anymore

Postbox letter from Old Bloke

I'm still getting some good offers, but not at the level I'm used to. And it's only going to get worse as I get older.

Older teachers can still lead the way!

Postbox letter from Michael Heaney, Providence, RI, USA

The older and wiser you are, the more likely you are to have genuine compassion for students... especially important with all the possible roadblocks students can encounter, learning a second language!
