Clouds of smoke
Postbox letter from Fair go
Surely there must be the element in institutions where English is taught for profit in Thailand, that they want to adorn their business prospectus with a young and handsome or beautiful white face.
Schools are not Hooters
Postbox letter from Sar C. Astic
Comparing the hiring process of Hooters to a school in Thailand is not only illogical but also utterly tasteless.
Asian features seal my fate (part two)
Postbox letter from Multi racial American
The example of being discriminated at Hooters for not being a sexy young female is not equitable with my discrimination here. That is the restaurant industry in America and this is education
You give customers what they want - it's a business
Postbox letter from Joe Hoeson
I would like to say that my original letter was regarding whether or not it's okay to put 'native speakers only' need apply. Now, whether or not native speaker is used to mean we do not want black or Asian teachers is another story.
Asian features seal my fate
Postbox letter from Multi racial American
Schools can technically hire whoever they want. If they want white faces, there is nothing that can be done about it.
Let's not kid ourselves
Postbox letter from Anonymous

Job ads are not racist
Postbox letter from Joe Hoeson
Having been a school owner before, I see nothing racist in saying that I only want native speakers to apply.
Racism in job ads
Postbox letter from Sar C. Astic
This letter is for employers who post their job ads here on Ajarn.com. I hope that you will consider "some" non-native English speakers. Changing "NES only" to "NES preferred" can make the ad more sensitive to NNES like me.
Whites or native speakers?
Postbox letter from Terri
I am fluent in both French and English. My students were told I was French but I always told them I was African - born and raised in France. If you dont like my teaching methodologies, they can bring in another teacher but i am not gonna lie about anything.
If you're white, you're alright
Postbox letter from Spectre
I stopped attaching my picture to my applications and instantly started receiving more responses.
