    Surely that is the one pre-requisite necessary to be even considered for a teaching job here.

    Ok then mate. You are a TROLL

    Shustraya, (sorry, sp., Shustroll),

    You obviously have lazy reading habits as well to add to your lack of intelligence and perception, I pointed out the sp. in my last post and apologised for the mistake.

    Your presumption that being a sexpat is prerequisite to becoming a teacher in Thailand, along with your other inane comments pegs you as a twenty something year old wannabee, out for what he can get at a bargain.

    In another post of yours on another thread you claim to have had a black friend once,(no longer eh? Don't like Poles either?) Now you wish to champion the cause of poverty stricken third world bargirls and children as a ripoff teacher and chastise the wicked straight teachers.

    Well, I suppose you've got to have your day in the sun and imagine that you're God's gift to the poor girls and kiddies, cutting a few corners (every body does it, says you) like a modern day Robin Hood, or maybe more like Garry Glitter.

    Dream on, it won't be long now, your time in Thailand is nearly over and as desparate as you are to keep your latest fix supply up by becoming a bent teacher, you're going back to Ol' Smokey. Back to score in the shadows of the concrete jungle among the rest of your blingy tracksuited hoody white tacky shod chav mates.

    You don't know another chav called Nick do ya TROLL?

    I could get a job as a teacher here tomorrow if I so wished - but not for me thanks.

    You are wrong in nearly all of your assumptions about me - perhaps you are one of the 'straight' teachers that is eking out a pitiful existence here and blames it on the 'fakes'?

    You mean Nicka? - yes , he is a troll of sorts.

    I don't mind Poles as I've already stated - just that there's too many of the fuckers coming over to Britain and forcing the wages down for the locals.



    back to the Tefl nonsense:

    Can you really see the Tefl industry surviving in Thailand if all schools had to 100% check the credentials of every teacher - no chance.

    If that were the case they'd just employ non-native speakers to keep the wages low and thus the level of language teaching would drop even further.

    Thetyim,

    Good point re. your mate with a degree driving trucks.

    I think that most teachers and university students have taken on work that is well outside of their degrees and training, simply to make ends meet while studying or waiting for positions.

    My brother was a senior art teacher in UK and opted out during an admin. reshuffle to become a woodcrafts man, making Moriss "Woody" frames, quite a lucrative business.

    I've been a private teacher/tutor all my life as well as having worked in various fields globally. I think that a broad spectrum non-formal education in the work force is an asset to formal teaching. Only recently did I study for and earn a BA and now, because I've enjoyed uni., I'm doing a BSc.

    As soon as I can, and if necessary, I'll do a TESOL/TEFL to cap it all off.

    Meanwhile, I work on private contract between study blocks.

    Good luck to your trucky friend.
    Cheers

    I suppose this means you can now speak good French, eh Shustroll?

    Nick is not Nicka, BTW. the chav Nick is (hopefully) locked up in UK, but if he gets back to BKK he'll get locked up in the "Hilton".

    looks like you'll be just at home being a Tefler in Thailand - do you think the parents would be impressed with your weekend rituals though?

    What's your problem with TEFL? Make sense lad! ^^

    As for the above quote from "hard work" thread, I can only suppose that humour flies over your head.

    I have no problem with Tefl - just don't think it matters how qualified you are - you can either teach English or not - a bit of paper proves nothing.



    As for being called 'scum' - I would say that is a little harsh.

    Now finally after 109 posts in this thread you finally get to say what you really want to...and we finally know for sure that you are an unqualified teacher with 'no paper'...why don't you go back to ajarn where people might actually be interested in this subject...

    not blindly defending teachers at all - just defending people that are doing a day's hard work for not a particularly great wage......

    The people who you are defending that are doing a day's hard work....are liers and cheaters....that's how they got their job isn't it? Is that who you want teaching your children?

    This thread is further proof that most people here know jack shit about the EFL situation in Thailand/SE Asia.

    Can Xzyte move this thread to Ajarn?

    The thread is about 2 teachers that were arrested for using false fraudulant documents, I think people know enough about fraud to comment on this thread

    No he won't. He predicted this long ago and is just sitting back watching how it unfolds.

    Questions
    1) Have you ever encountered me in person?
    2) Does me being "unpleasant" mean you hate the idea that I'm one of the few people who will speak my mind about anything I see or think is unpleasant in Thailand, because it brings you down, because you come to forums to get away from all that and be entertained and don't need it all thrown back in your face again? Just wondering like...

    The problems is that Thai folks must surely link 'Teacher fraudsters' to falangs in general? It gives us all a bad name & think it's about time they stopped.

    But why have sympathy for the foreigners who get sucked into this?

    Nobody is forced to do it, and if you are desperate enough to live in Thailand that you will work for a school that just wants to milk you of your knowledge to make money and then wash it's hands of you the minute you get caught, you really don't deserve sympathy, maybe a lobotomy...

    Hmmm, also proved by writing "our native English tutors are TOEFL qualified" on the agency website

    "All our teachers are educated to degree standard at a western university and are TOEFL qualified."

    According to Bangkok Phil, the poor bastards have been banged up for 3 months.
    Sounds a bit excessive to me.

    To update the situation, I've been contacted by a member of Mr Mercer's family to see if I can help in any way. Apparently the Canadian authorities have hardly been what you would call helpful. To be honest I wish I could but I've learned that you never stand in the way of 'Thai justice' when it's really got nothing to do with you.

    According to Mr Mercer's relative, both teachers were handed jail sentences of three months. I just wonder why this hasn't been reported in the press?

    There's little I can do to comfort Mr Mercer's family at this time except to say that in a country that hands out lengthy jail sentences like candy, three months has to be looked on as 'lenient'. Any time spent in a Thai prison is going to be tough but keep your head down and three months will pass quickly enough.

    There's no such thing as TOEFL qualified! TOEFL's for the students who wish to study aboroad (US especially).

    Now someone please tell those unqualfied teachers that TOEFL stands for "Testing of English as a Foreign Language". It's just a test not a training program.

    Fucking idiots.

    yeah i didnt expect they'd get a jail sentence.

    i would have thought a few strokes of the cane and being banned from thailand would suffice.

    Shouldn't have bothered with the fake degree really, no work permit and it would just be a fine.
