Look; don't tell anyone, but I'm a CIA Intelligence Agent on a special mission to see if there is any prostitution in Thailand.

So far it appears to be clean...

That's the second time in 6 posts you've accused others of when disagreeing with their advice.

Bit arrogant and presumptuous.

So you have briefly read some TEFL books and are now suddenly a pedagogical guru.

Right.

Thailand neither wants you or needs you. You'd be best to follow MtD's advice and stay in Lapland and get some qualifications first. I've interviewed a dozen engineers for teaching jobs here, and not one could make the grade, I see no reason to think that you would be any different.

I guess it is easy to get the finger doing that.

Sounds like you don't know what you're talking about.
