In ILP classes, children learn English similarly to how they acquired their native language, through experience and interaction with a fluent speaker. Since teachers speak only in English while teaching, you do not need to be able to speak Thai. Applicants should demonstrate good social skills, willingness to work with a foreign employer, and the desire to serve children. The employer prefers previous [volunteer experience with ILP, ](https://ilp.org/volunteering-learn-more/)but it's not required.](https://web.ilp.org/thailand-teaching-jobs#) [![3512623_airplane_flight_plane_transportation_travel_icon](https://web.ilp.org/hs-fs/hubfs/3512623_airplane_flight_plane_transportation_travel_icon.png?width=512&height=512&name=3512623_airplane_flight_plane_transportation_travel_icon.png) #### Job Details Positions are contracted for one year, from either May-May, or from October-October.

Having international experience on your resume opens up conversations that will help you stand out in job applications later on. **Travel** Weekends off and vacation time allow you to travel across Thailand and beyond to experience all Asia has to offer. **Authentic Experiences** You'll live like a local, meeting new friends and experiencing the culture firsthand.  ](https://web.ilp.org/thailand-teaching-jobs#) #### Experience Thailand Teachers live in Central Thailand (in two locations: Phichit and Phitsanulok). Through the ILP Professional Teaching Program, you'll live and teach at a local school, but with other American teachers (in addition to local staff). This program is focused on immersion, providing ways for you to not only experience a foreign culture but to contribute to it. In addition to your teaching opportunities, teachers will have the chance to travel on weekends, holiday breaks, and designated school vacation days. Teachers are responsible for all of their vacation arrangements and costs and have been able to travel all over Thailand and other countries in the area. #### Become Trained In An Effective Teaching Methodology Teachers use a methodology for learning English as a second language developed by the late Dr. Trevor McKee, Ph.D., professor of Human Development and Psycholinguistics at Brigham Young University. Prior to departure, you will complete a qualifying training session with ILP on teaching using this methodology. Applicants from a wide variety of backgrounds have become very effective teachers in a short time, even without prior experience. English will help the children in Thailand receive numerous educational and professional opportunities now and in the future. More importantly, each child will build a loving relationship with an American teacher. Our teaching methodology is geared to facilitate small group interactions between the students and you, their teacher. The impact you can make is a powerful one.  #### Make new friends Participants in this program typically come from schools like Brigham Young University, BYU-I, University of Utah, Utah State, Weber State, Arizona State University, and many others throughout Utah, the United States, and Canada. #### Get started today We are currently accepting applications!
