The Insider Guide to Getting a High-Paying Teaching Job (200k Baht+) at an International School

The best-paid teaching jobs in Thailand are at the top international schools, where overseas hires get housing, flights and salaries from THB100,000 a month. Here is what those schools ask for, where they advertise and when to apply.

English teaching is undoubtedly one of the most popular jobs for expats in Thailand.

However, not all teaching jobs are the same. The most sought-after teaching jobs are those at international schools.

Those are the highest-paid teaching jobs, and they come with benefits such as flight tickets, accommodation, travel expenses, and relocation assistance.

Because of this, competition is high as well. Not everyone can apply for those jobs. And you’ll rarely find them on general teaching job websites like ajarn.com.

In this article, we will guide you through everything you need to know in order to get a teaching job at leading international schools in Thailand, including qualifications, the best time to look for a position, and where to look.
