Things I won't do for work
They say that everybody has a price
Although most of my TEFL experience has not been in Thailand, there is still a long list of things I won’t accept in a teaching job. Talk numbers and cross my palm with silver because these are the things I simply won’t do for work.
Teachers and their legal standing
Postbox letter from Seeker of Knowledge
I know a group of teachers last year that tried to take a well known private school to court over various acts of blantant labour abuses. They fell like rocks when a well known law firm (which also wrote the law book we were using to find information) told them the law they published did not apply to us. Since then I have been very cautious about my work contract.
Teacher severance pay
Postbox letter from The Dude is Going To Labour Law Korea
The letter of the law
What about a teachers association?
Postbox letter from Johnny Kay
Teachers need to get hardline and not just wimp out when they don't get paid.
Teachers rights
Know your rights as a teacher in Thailand
I have always been amazed by how little most foreigners and Thai people know about Thai Labor Law. Why wouldn’t you want to know what your rights are under the law?
