STAMFORD COLLEGE

INSTITUTE OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE MEDIUM EDUCATION

Jobs

 We currently employs approximately 40 native-speaker teachers within our institute group. We usually require our teachers to have a Bachelor's degree or genuine alternative, but more importantly we require them to have a certificate or diploma in teaching English, or TEFL/TESOL. There are many such qualifications, but we recognize them all provided they are issued by a recognized institute.
Teachers with highly relevant experience but no formal teaching qualifications are invited to apply also, and such teachers might often be put through the Stamford Teacher Training Certificate program. By doing so, an uncertified teacher has the opportunity to become certified by a well-known institute of education that is particularly well-recognized in this part of the world.

We have a contract for teachers, which durates for one full calendar year. It normally starts in late/April early May, as this is near the start of the academic year in Thailand. However, we do have vacancies at various times throughout the year, so if you are interested in joining us, please send in your resume at any time. Our contract calls for a teacher to teach 100 hours per calendar month, and for this there is, of course, a reward package. The present reward package consists of:

• a fixed monthly starting salary of 26,000 baht

• any overtime hours paid as extra

• 4 weeks paid leave, plus public and national holidays

• medical coverage

• long term work permit and visa applied and paid for

• other minor benefits, such as down-time, which is the period of time between semesters when there are fewer classes.
  

What kind of classes? Class size? Level of students? Work five or six days a week? Does the school use course books? What kind of syllabus do the students follow? These are some of the questions teachers need answers to when applying for a teaching post at an overseas school.
Within our group here in HatYai, we have a Primary school, an International Business College, a Technical and Commercial College, and a Language school. We have a variety of teaching positions available, so the type of classes you might teach would depend on which position is open at the time of your application. We increase the number of students each year (currently around 11,000), therefore we have an increasing demand for teachers as each year begins.

Some of our teachers are long-term here, and we encourage prospective teachers who are considering joining us to contact any and all of our current staff to find out what it is really like to work at and for our school. To do so, simply email the school from this site and request a contact.

We have programs installed that offer our students the chance to further their studies at our Malaysian Institute in Kuala Lumpur and gain a degree from a choice of recognized UK or Australian Universities, and we are also registered as a testing venue for a selection of the Cambridge ESOL exams.
